Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You;ll run into this formula a lot. Make sure you study it carefully.
A = 25
a = 5
d = 13
Find n
25 = 5 + 13*(n- 1)
20 = 13(n - 1)
This isn't going to work out. 20/13 does not give a whole number which it should.
The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2
You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
To solve 4n you need to divide both sides by 4
