Finde the difference between each one:

d =  A2 - a1 = 4-2 = 2

sequence formula:

an = a1 + (n-1) *d

a10 = 2 + (10-1) * 2

a10 = 2+9 *2

a10 = 2+18

a10 = 20


The answer is D.

PLEASE HELP me ! I NEED HELP
mezya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of 50-cent increases in the cost of a book rental.

Right now he is renting 38 books per day at $3 per rental. If he raises his price he will lose 4 rentals per increase. The money part of this is:

$3 + .5x = the price per book rental after the increase. That's how much money he will make. The money made is NOT the same thing as the number of rentals. Therefore, they are put into separate expressions.

The number of rentals is:

38 - 4x. This is the number of books he is currently renting minus the number of book rentals he will lose per price increase. Putting those 2 expressions together and multiplying them will give you the end result of this increase in price.

(3 + .5x)(38 - 4x) = 114 - 12x + 19x - 2x², or putting it in descending powers of x and combining like terms:

-2x² + 7x + 114

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer: E. 120

The number of seniors were there in high school X at the beginning of the year = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : At the beginning of the year, the ratio of juniors to seniors in high school X was 3 to 4.

Let the number of juniors be 3x and the number of seniors be 4x.

Since , during the year, 10 juniors and twice as many seniors transferred to another high school, while no new students joined high school X.

i.e. Number of juniors at the end of the year = 3x-10

Number of seniors at the end of the yea = 4x-2(10)=4x-20

At the end of the year, the ratio of juniors to seniors was 4 to 5.

\Rightarrow\dfrac{3x-10}{4x-20}=\dfrac{4}{5}

\Rightarrow5(3x-10)=4(4x-20)

\Rightarrow15x-50=16x-80

\Rightarrow16x-15x=80-50

\Rightarrow x=30

The number of seniors were there in high school X at the beginning of the year = 4(30)=120

Hence, the correct answer is E. 120 .
