Answer:

-5,-8,-11,-14,-17

Step-by-step explanation:

-3n -2

n=1 -3(1) -2 = -3-2 = -5

n=2 -3(2) -2 = -6-2 = -8

n=3 -3(3) -2 = -9-2 = -11

n=4 -3(4) -2 = -12-2 = -14

n=5 -3(5) -2 = -15-2 = -17

We can substitute n with each term in order.

First Term:

-3(1) - 2

-3 - 2

-5

Second Term:

-3(2) - 2

-6 - 2

-8

Third Term:

-3(3) - 2

-9 - 2

-11

Fourth Term:

-3(4) - 2

-12 - 2

-14

Fifth Term:

-3(5) - 2

-15 - 2

-17

Therefore, the sequence is -5, -8, -11, - 14, -17

Rajesh invested $30,000 into an account that compounds interest monthly at a rate of 2.16%. He has made arrangements to withdraw

Bond [772]

By Evaluating the Compound Interest, we come to know that Rajesh will have enough money in the account to cover all of the required loan payments.

The Principal Amount(P) = $30,000

Rate of Interest (r) = 2.16 %

Time(t) = 10 years

Number of Times it is Compounded in a year(n) = 12

Now, we have

$A =P(1+\frac{r}{100n}) ^{nt}$

Putting all the values, we evaluate the amount,

$A =30,000(1+\frac{2.16}{100*12}) ^{12*10}\\\\A = 30,000 * 1.240\\A = 37,225.84$

Hence, the Amount after Compound Interest = $37,225.87

Now, The loan amount that he pays = 300 *12*10 = $ 36,000

Yes, he will have enough money in the account to cover all of the required loan payments.

Answer:

28 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w stand for the number of miles Derrick runs each week. Then after 4 weeks of training, he wants the total mileage to be 100 miles.

16 + 3w = 100

3w = 84 . . . . . . . subtract 16

w = 28 . . . . . . . . divide by 3
