How many terms are in the arithmetic sequence 7, 1, −5, …, −161?

Mathematics

uranmaximum [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

• a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

d = 1 - 7 = - 5 - 1 = - 6 and a₁ = 7, a_{n} = - 161, hence

7 - 6(n - 1) = - 161 ← solve for n

7 - 6n + 6 = - 161

13 - 6n = - 161 ( subtract 13 from both sides )

- 6n = - 174 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

n = 29

There are 29 terms in the sequence

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

(-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting at the point (1, 0)

Now we move don 2 units (so the y-value reduces in two units) making now the point (1,0-2)  which is (1, -2)

then we move to the left 4 units (so the x-value has now to be decreased in 4 units) making the point: (1-4, -2) which is (-3, -2)
