Answer: 145 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

arithmetic sequence

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1).r

aₙ → last term

a₁ → 1st term

n → quantity of terms

r → common difference

a₁ = 1 (one can at the top)

aₙ₋₁ = 25

aₙ = 28

To find out How many cans are in the entire display, we need the SUM of the arithmetic sequence: S = (a₁+aₙ)n/2

∴

S = (1+28).n/2

n = ?

aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1).r

r = 28 - 25 = 3

28 = 1 + (n - 1).3

27 = (n - 1).3

27/3 = (n - 1)

9 = n - 1

n = 9 + 1 = 10

S = (1+28).n/2

S = (1+28).10/2 = 29.10/2 = 29.5 = 145

Answer: the answer is -6

2(n+5) = -2

2n + 10 = -2

2n = -2 - 10

2n = -12

2n *1/2 = -12 * 1/2 = -6

n = -6

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, look at one specific point for example, A. It is at the point (3,6). In order for this point to get to where it was moved to, you must rotate it counterclockwise () 90 degrees. Do this by changing the initial point from (x,y) to (-y,x). This is located at (-6,3). Then you can see that it was translated 2 units up from there.

I hope this helped.
