Answer:
- 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Average is calculated as
average =
Thus for the given 10 numbers we have
= - 5 ( multiply both sides by 10 )
total = - 50
let the number added be x, then
= - 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )
total + x = - 66, that is
- 50 + x = - 66 ( add 50 to both sides )
x = - 16
The new number is - 16
1. Let 
be the number of seats in the 
-th row. The number seats in the -th row relative to the number of seats in the 
-th row is given by the recursive rule
Since
, we have
So the explicit rule for the sequence is
In the 15th row, the number of seats is
2. Let
be the amount of profit in the -th year. If the profits increase by 6% each year, we would have
with
.
The second part of the question is somewhat vague - are we supposed to find the profits in the 20th year alone? the total profits in the first 20 years? I'll assume the first case, in which we would have a profit of
3. Now let denote the number of pushups done in the -th week. Since 
, 
, and 
, it looks like we can expect the number of pushups to quadruple per week. So,
starting with
.
We can apply the same reason as in (2) to find the explicit rule for the sequence, which you'd find to be

Step-by-step explanation:
A spreadsheet is a useful tool for keeping track of the numbers. A picture of one is attached.
We have assumed that the dollar amount for housing computed in the first part remains the same (though the percentage changes). If that is not the case, you'll have to recompute.
Likewise, we assume that the "5%" retirement amount remains 5% of the nominal salary, rather than 5% of the salary after the mandatory retirement deduction. Similarly, we assume dance lessons remain at their original amount, and were not reduced when the company began taking mandatory retirement.
Feel free to build your own spreadsheet and recompute as needed for any assumptions I got wrong, or for any additional scenarios.
