Mathematics
1 answer:
RideAnS [48]3 years ago

Answer:

  -17

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term in the sequence is 5 less than the one before, so the first 4 terms are ...

  -2, -7, -12, -17

The 4th term of the sequence is -17.

__

The general term (an) of the sequence can be written as ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

where a1 is the first term and d is the common difference. Here, those are ...

  a1 = -2, d = -5

so the general term is ...

  an = -2 -5(n -1)

We can use this to find the 4th term:

  a4 = -2 -5(4 -3)

  a4 = -17

Jane has 34 candles leftover from the last craft show and Brianna
katrin [286]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of leftover candles for Jane = 34

and  the number of leftover candles for Brianna = 2

Rate of candle making for Jane = 24 candles/ hour

Rate of candle making for Jane = 32 candles/ hour

As they work for h hours to make candles.

So, in h hours, the number of new candles made by Jane = 24h candles

For Jane, the total number of candles after h houres, including the leftover candles = 24h+34 \cdots(i)

Similarly, in h hours, the number of new candles made by Brianna = 32h candles

For Brianna, the total number of candles after h houres, including the leftover candles = 32h+2 \cdots(ii).

As they want to have the same number of candles at their stalls, so equating the numbers of candles from equations (i) and (ii), we have

24h+34=32h+2 \\\\\Rightarrow 32h-24h=34-2 \\\\\Rightarrow 8h=32\\\\

\Rightarrow h=32/8=4 hours.

Hence, both need to work for 4 hours to have the same number of candles.

an air conditioning system can circulate 360, cubic feet of air per minute. how many cubic yards of air can it circulate per min
ahrayia [7]

Alright, lets get started.

3 feet = 1 yard

If we cube both sides of the equation, we will get the conversion into cubic yards

So,

3*3*3 cubic feet = 1 * 1*1 cubic yards

27 cubic feet = 1 cubic yards

So, 1 cubic feet = \frac{1}{27} cubic yards

So, 360 cubic feet = 360 *\frac{1}{27} cubic yards

So, 360 cubic feet = 13.33 cubic yards

13.33 cubic yards of air can it circulate per minute. : Answer

Hope it will help :)
