The arithmetic formula is expressed as an = a1 + d *(n-1)where n is an integer. Substituting from the given a1 = -12 and a27 = 66, 66 = -12 + d *(27-1). hence  , d is equal to 3. a42 thus using the formula is equal to 111. The final answer to this problem is 111.

Answer:

42nd term is 111

Step-by-step explanation:

a_1=-12,a_{27}=66

Now, Using formula of nth term of an A.P. we have :

a_n=a+(n-1)\times d\\\text{Take n=27}\\\implies a_{27}=-12+(27-1)\times d\\\implies 66=-12+26\cdot d\\\implies 26\cdot d = 78\\\implies d = 3

Now, first term a = -12 , n = 42 and d = 3

So, 42nd term is :

a_{42}=-12+(42-1)\times 3\\\implies a_{42}=-12+41\times 3\\\implies a_{42}=-12+123\\\bf\implies a_{42}=111

Hence, 42nd term is 111

Jake puts 6 stamps in his book every day.

30/6= 5

5*5= 25

Dan has 25 stamps when Jake has 30.

Summer day camp is about to begin. Today there are 132 boys signed up and 219 total children signed up. How many more than girls
Aleks04 [339]
To find the number of girls signed up for camp, we just subtract the number of boys from to total number of children. There are 132 boys and 219 children, which gives us

219 - 132 = 87 girls. To find how many boys there are than girls, we just find the difference between the 132 boys and 87 girls by subtracting again:

132 - 87 = 45 more girls than boys.
