3, 1, -1, -3, -5
 -2  -2  -2  -2

a(n) = a₁ + d(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n) + 2(1)
a(n) = 3 - 2n + 2
a(n) = -2n + 3 + 2
a(n) = -2n + 5
   a₁₄ = -2(14) + 5
   a₁₄ = -28 + 5
   a₁₄ = -23

The answer is C.

If someone sleeps 8 hours a day for 75 years how many hours did that person sleep in his lifetime?
ra1l [238]
The person sleeps 8 hours a day.

There are 365 days in a year and 366 days in a leap year.

A leap year occurs every 4 years.

If we divide 75 by 4, we get 18.75. This number represents how many leap years occurred in 75 years. So, the person experienced approximately 19 leap years.

19 leap years has 6954 days.

The other 56 years, which have 365 days each year, have a total of 20,440 days.

That's a total of 27,394 days.

27,394 × 8 = 219,152 hours

This is approximately 24 years or 9,131 days.
