Since it is given that the reduction in the amount of waste each week is linear, it is conclusive that these data are also in arithmetic sequence. First, determine the common difference (d)
                                 d = (a10 - a5) / (10 - 5)
Subsituting the known values,
                                d = (30 - 40) / 5 = -2
To determine any term (at) of the arithmetic sequence,
                            at = a1 + (n - 1) x d 
Solve for a1 by using either the given a5 or a10,
                            40 = a1 + (5 -1) x -2     ; a1 = 48
The equation becomes, 
                                 at = 48 + -2(n -1)

Here is the formula you'll need
Total = Principal * (1 + (rate/n))^n*years
I don't know how to solve that for "n" so we'll use trial and error.

If compounded annually, total = <span> <span> <span> 10,841.24 </span> </span> </span>
If compounded quarterly, total = <span> <span> <span> 10,955.64 </span>
</span></span><span>If compounded monthly, total = </span> <span> <span> <span> 10,981.82 </span> </span> </span>
If compounded daily, total = <span> <span> <span> 10,994.58 </span> </span> </span>
Therefore the answer is "A", daily.

The hypotenuse of one side of a right angled triangle are 5cm and 4cm respectively. what is the length of the other side
AURORKA [14]
Answer: 3cm

Explanation:

We can use Pythagorean’s theorem to find that other side:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 4^2 = 5^2
a^2 = 25 - 16
a^2 = 9
a = 3

Therefore, the other side is 3cm
