We need to take care of the third decimal placer for rounding issues, however the third decimal place is 4, so it does not round, hence, we have:
20.294117 = <span>20.29</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
t8 = a1 + (n - 1)*d
t8 = 17
17 = a1 + 7*d
t12 = 25
25 = a1 + 11d
17 = a1 + 7d Subtract
8 = 4d Divide by 4
8/4 = 4d/4
2 = d
17 = a1 + 7d
17 = a1 + 7*2
17 = a1 + 14 Subtract 14
3 = a1
Sum 20 terms
The 20 term = a1 + 19*2
The 20 term = 3 + 38
= 41
Sum = (a1 + a20) * 20 / 2
Sum = (3 + 41)* 20/2
Sum = 44 * 10
Sum = 440
16 of his stamps are from Africa, since 1/4 of 64 is 16. If I subtract his 28 from Europe and Africa (16 plus 12 equals 28) from his original 64, I am left with 36 stamps. 36/64 is simplified to 9/16. So 9/16 of Terrence's stamps are from Asia.
To find inverse, you switch x and y, and solve for y
Original: y=2x-1/3
Now:
x=2y-1/3
x+1/3=2y
(x+1/3)/2=y
y=
4 because 2, 3, and 1 can all fit into 6.
