Distance traveled in 3 hrs was (speed in mph)(3 hrs)
Then s(3 hrs) + 12 mi = 132 mi.
Therefore, 3s = 120, and s = 120 miles / 3 hrs = 40 mph (answer)
In this sequence, we're given the first term, which is 45.
The difference between each term is -3, which means 3 will be subtracted in each term.
We're asked to find the value of the tenth term, and we can do so by using this formula:
a(n) = a(1) + d(n - 1)
Replace values.
a(10) = 45 + -3(9)
a(10) = 18
<h3>The value of the tenth term is 18.</h3>
Answer:
First, find two points on the graph:
- (x₁, y₁) = (0, 2)
- (x₂, y₂) = (2, 8)
Slope = 
16 + (-3) = 16 - 3 = 13
