Answer:
a₄=8n+1= -39.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) if a₁=3n; a₃=5n-6 and a₅=11n+8, then it is possible to calculate the difference according to 0.5(a₅-a₃)=0.5(a₃-a₁). Then
2) 0.5(11n+8-5n+6)=0.5(5n-6-3n); ⇔ 6n+14=2n-6; ⇔ n= -5.
3) if n=-5, then the 4th term is:

or a₄=-39.
Simple Interest, I = PRT/100
3240 = 18 000 * R * 6 /100
3240 = 180*R*6
3240 / (180*6) = R Use your calculator
3 = R
The annual interest rate is 3%.
87.5 percent
Reason: 40/40-5/40 is 35/40. Divide 35/40 and you get 0.875. Multiply by a hundred and you get 87.5%
Answer:
4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint segment has length ...
... L = AB/2 + BC + CD/2 = 16 cm
The entire segment has length ...
... AD = AB + BC + CD = 28 cm
If we subtract AD from 2L, we have ...
... 2L - AD - 2L = 2(AB/2 +BC + CD/2) - (AB +BC +CD) = 2(16 cm) -28 cm = 4 cm
... AB +2BC + CD -AB -BC -CD = 4 cm . . . . remove parentheses
... BC = 4 cm . . . . simplify
