The rule is n-4;
163 - 4 = 159
159 - 4 = 155
155 - 4 = 151
151 - 4 = 147
A quick way to solve this is to mutliply 4 by 23 and subtract the product from the 1st term.
23 x 4 = 92
163 - 92 = 71
The 23rd term is 71.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The sum of all the sweets is 54 sweets
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the number of sweets the three have altogether.
Let the number of sweet Faith has be x
Mathematically;
Faith has 4 sweets fewer than the average number of sweets
The average is the sum of all the sweets divided by 3
The average will be (10 + 30 + x)/3
Thus;
(10 + 30 + x)/3 - 4 = x
(40 + x)/3 = x + 4
40 + x = 3(x + 4)
40 + x = 3x + 12
40-12 = 3x -x
28 = 2x
x = 28/2
x = 14 sweets
So the sum of all the sweets would be 10 + 30 + 14 = 54 sweets
First simplify like terms (things with the same letter):
3g + 7g + 8 = -10 + g
10g + 8 = -10 + g
Next we should take g off both sides:
9g + 8 = -10
Next isolate 9g by taking 8 off both sides:
9g = -18
Next divide both sides by 9 to find the value of g:
g = -2
2 quarts in 1/2 a gallon
2 pints in a quart
1 pint is 16 ounces
7 1/2 pints total
7 1/2 * 16 = 120 ounces
120/ 6= 20 6 ounce servings
Not clear.
Step-by-step explanation:
How much does the original mixture produce? is the original 1 quart? 1 gallon? 1 cup?
