Answer:

a20 = -99

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

the nth term in this  arithmetic sequence is : an = a1 + (n -1 )d

a1 = 15   a2 = 9       d = a2-a1 = 9-15 = -6  ( common difrence)

an = 15 + (n -1 )(-6)

an = 15+6-6n

an = -6n+21

the 20th term when n = 20 :  a20 = -6(20)+21 = -99

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: 42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x

Therefore, width = 2/3x

Area = Length × Width

Therefore, x × 2/3x = 1176

2/3x² = 1176

Divide both side by 2/3

x² = 1176 ÷ 2/3

x² = 1176 × 3/2

x² = 1764

x = ✓1764

x = 42

The length is 42 feet

juin [17]
We already know that he is trying to save 10 dollars a week and his goal is 300 so we know that has to be in the equation. 160 is the only one not mentioned in the back round information so we can say that the 160 dollars is the amount of money he already had saved before he started working

If f(x) = _4x _ 1, find f(_2)
tia_tia [17]
The answer is 7

f(x) = -4x - 1
f(-2) = ?

Since f(x) = f(-2), then x = -2. Now just substitute x in the function:
f(-2) = (-4) * (-2) - 1
f(-2) = 8 - 1
f(-2) = 7
