<u>Arithmetic Sequences</u>
The arithmetic sequences are identified because any term n is obtained by adding or subtracting a fixed number to the previous term. That number is called the common difference.
The equation to calculate the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:
Where
an = nth term
a1 = first term
r = common difference
n = number of the term
We are given the first terms of a sequence:
-12, -28, -44,...
Find the common difference by subtracting consecutive terms:
r = -28 - (-12) = -16
r = -44 - (-28) = -16
The first term is a1 = -12. Now we calculate the term n=61:
Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
6/2 = 3
42+3 = 45
Answer:
a) 376.66
b) Option 2: No, the result from part (a) could not be the actual number of adults who said that rising gas prices are "quite annoying" because a count of people must result in a whole.
c) 377
d) 40.77%
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 37% of 1018 is;
37/100 × 1018 = 376.66
b) Thus, the result in a above is not a whole number. Thus;
No, the result from part (a) could not be the actual number of adults who said that rising gas prices are "quite annoying" because a count of people must result in a whole.
c) from a above a, we got a value of 376.66.
Now the actual number would be preferably an integer. Thus, actual number is approximately 377.
d) percentage of respondents said that cellular phones are not at all harmful = 415/1018 × 100% = 40.77%
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the absolute values of the students,
C is the greatest. |-3| = 3
