Identify the 35th term of an arithmetic sequence where a1 = −7 and a18 = 95.

1 answer:

4 0

Th term of an arithmetic sequence:

We have to find the difference (d)

an=a₁+(n-1)d

Data:
a₁=-7
a₁₈=95

95=-7+(18-1)d
95+7=17d
17d=102
d=102/17
d=6

Now, we can calculate the 35 th term of an arithmetic sequence:
a₃₅=-7+(35-1)*6
a₃₅=-7+34*6
a₃₅=-7+204
a₃₅=197

Answer: the 35th term of this arithmetic sequence is 197. (a₃₅=197)

Find area of blue shaded region

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

$\approx \: 7.33 \: {cm}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the blue shaded region

$= \frac{ \theta}{360 \degree} \times \pi r_1^2 - \frac{ \theta}{360 \degree} \times \pi r_2^2 \\ \\ = \frac{ \pi\theta}{360 \degree} ( r_1^2 - r_2^2) \\ \\ ( r_1 = 4 \: cm, \: \: r_2 = 3\: cm, \: \: \theta = 120 \degree) \\ \\ = \frac{ 3.14 \times 120 \degree}{360 \degree} ( 4^2 - 3^2) \\ \\ = \frac{ 3.14 }{3} \times 7 \\ \\ = \frac{21.98}{3} \\ \\ = 7.32666667 \\ \\ \approx \: 7.33 \: {cm}^{2}$
