Mathematics

Reil [10]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

Sum of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula:

Sn = (a1 + an)*(n/2)

First term is 6(1) - 4 = 2

16th term is 6(16) - 4 = 92

(2+92)*(16/2) = 752

2. Use the same formula from above. (assuming the first term is when n = 1)

a1 = 2(1) - 3 = -1

a10 = 2(10) - 3 = 17

(-1+17)*(10/2) = 80

Suppose that during one period extreme cold,the average daily temperature decreased 1 1/2 F each day. How many days did it take

Alenkasestr [34]

We have been given that during one period extreme cold, the average daily temperature decreased $1\frac{1}{2}$ degree F each day. We are asked to find number of days it will take for the temperature to decrease by 9 degree F.

First of all we will convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction.

$1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

Now we will divide total temperature change (9) by average daily temperature change ( $\frac{3}{2}$ ) to find number of days.

$9\div\frac{3}{2}$

Dividing a number by a fraction is same as multiplying the number by reciprocal of the fraction.

$9\cdot\frac{2}{3}$

$3\cdot2=6$

Therefore, it will take 6 days for the temperature to decrease by 9 degree F.
