Answer:
= 5n - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₄ = 18 , then
a₁ + 3d = 18 , that is
3 + 3d = 18 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
3d = 15 (divide both sides by 3 )
d = 5
Then
= 3 + 5(n - 1) = 3 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 2 ← explicit rule
Answer: 2,560 pint containers

Answer:
Does the table show evidence of an association between not taking piano lessons and not attending an Ivy League school? From the table, the joint relative frequency for people who did not take piano lessons and who did not attend an Ivy League school is the greatest
Subtract 16 to get
x^2 -25 = 0
Factor this as
(x -5)(x +5) = 0
The zero product property tells you the product will be zero when one of the factors is zero.
For x-5 = 0
x = 5
For x+5 = 0
x = -5
The appropriate choice is
3) x=-5 or x=5
