5 feet is equal to 60 inches. 60 inches divided by 2.5 inches per hour means it would take 24 hours for the drill to reach five feet (assuming it maintains the same rate of digging)
I’m sorry I don’t know the answer I’m looking for the same one to
1954 to 2015 = 61 years

Answer: choice B) a35 = -118
=====================================================
Explanation:
When n = 5, an = 32 as shown in the first column of the table. This means the fifth term is 32. Plug in those values to get
an = a1+d(n-1)
32 = a1+d(5-1)
32 = a1+4d
Solve for a1 by subtracting 4d from both sides
a1 = 32-4d
We'll plug this in later
Turn to the second column of the table. We have n = 10 and an = 7. Plug those values into the formula
an = a1+d(n-1)
7 = a1 + d(10-1)
7 = a1+9d
Now substitute in the equation in which we solved for a1
7 = a1+9d
7 = 32-4d+9d ... replace a1 with 32-4d
7 = 32+5d
5d = 7-32
5d = -25
d = -25/5
d = -5
This tells us that we subtract 5 from each term to get the next term.
Use this d value to find a1
a1 = 32-4d
a1 = 32-4*(-5)
a1 = 32+20
a1 = 52
The first term is 52
--------------
The nth term formula is therefore
an = 52 + (-5)(n-1)
which simplifies to
an = -5n + 57
To check this result, plug in n = 5 to find that a5 = 32. Similarly, you'll find that a10 = 7 after plugging in n = 10. I'll let you do these checks.
--------------
Replace n with 35 to find the 35th term
an = -5n + 57
a35 = -5(35) + 57
a35 = -175 + 57
a35 = -118
Answer: Choice D
In two games, the team lost to the opponent by 1 goal.
========================================================
Explanation:
Negative scores indicate the team lost, and the absolute value of those values represent how much of a loss.
So a difference of -1 means the team lost by 1 point.
We have 2 dots over this value, so there are 2 occasions where the team lost to the opponent by 1 goal.
An example would be that say the team scored 3 goals and the opponent scored 4 goals. So we have a differential of 3-4 = -1. The order is important because we would <u>not</u> say 4-3 = 1.
