Let the first term, common difference and number of terms of an AP are a, d and n respectively.

Given that, 9th term of an AP, T9 = 0 [∵ nth term of an AP, Tn = a + (n-1)d]

⇒ a + (9-1)d = 0

⇒ a + 8d = 0 ⇒ a = -8d ...(i)

Now, its 19th term , T19 = a + (19-1)d

= - 8d + 18d [from Eq.(i)]

= 10d ...(ii)

and its 29th term, T29 = a+(29-1)d

= -8d + 28d [from Eq.(i)]

= 20d = 2 × T19

Hence, its 29th term is twice its 19th term

Answer:

Proved below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a9 = a1 + 8d = 0          where a1 = first term and d = common difference.

we need to prove that

a1 + 28d = 2(a1 + 18d

simplifying:-

a1  + 36d - 28d = 0

a1 + 8d = 0 which is what we are given.

Therefore  the proposition is true.

Trevor Sherr is paid $1.20 for each hand-painted
Margarita [4]

Answer:

$112.80

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add 56 and 44, which is 100. Then because 6 of the dishes contained errors, he didn't sell them, so subtract 6 from 100. You will get 94. Then you multiply 94 by 1.20 which would give you a result of $112.80.
