You just need to substitute 20 for x and then solve.

a(20) = -5 +(20-1)3

Simplify: a(20) = -5 + (60-3)

Simplify: a(20) = -5 + 57

Result: a(20) = 52

So, 52 is the 20th term of the arithmetic sequence.

In the equation
a(n) =  - 5 + (n - 1)3
Let n=20 and evaluate it as:

a(20) =  - 5 + (20 - 1)3 \\  \\ a(20) =  - 5 + (19)3 \\  \\ a(20) =  - 5 + 57 \\  \\ a(20) = 52

The product of two consecutive numbers is 182
kupik [55]
2 consecutive numbers....x and x + 1

x(x + 1) = 182
x^2 + x = 182
x^2 + x - 182 = 0
(x - 13)(x + 14) = 0

x - 13 = 0
x = 13

x + 14 = 0
x = -14....not this one because it is negative

x + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14

ur 2 numbers are : 13 and 14

if 15.9 of every 100 pregnant women in Georgia deliver their babies by c section how many pregnant women out of 25,250 would be
quester [9]
15.9 / 100 = c / 25,250....15.9 c sections to 100 women = c to 25,250 women
cross multiply
(100)(c) = (15.9)(25,250)
100c = 401475
c = 401475/100
c = 4014.75 <===

5x5 + 8x2 + 2x – 3x9 – 8x4 – 4x5
Vladimir79 [104]
I'm assuming that the number after the variable is supposed to be the exponent.

5x^{5}+8 x^{2} +2x-3x^{9}-8x^{4}-4x^{5}

Combine like terms to get:

-3x^{9}+x^{5}-8x^{4}+8x^{2}+2x
