I don't think you're stupid. ^^
Let's take the third term, 8. If n=3, then an should be 8.
The first answer gives 15+2.5*3=22.5.
The second answer gives 15.5+2.5=23.
The third answer gives 15-2.5*3=7.5.
The fourth answer gives 15.5-2.5*3=8.
Choice 4 is correct.
Let's try to actually find the equation on our own.
The equation for an arithmetic series is an=a0+dn where a0 is the term that comes before the first term.
The first term given is 13 and it decreases by 2.5 each time so n=-2.5 and the term that would be before 13 is 15.5.
Thus the equation is an=15.5-2.5n

Answer:
The expression that represents the total time Louis spends commuting to and from the gym each day is 8(x-2y)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the time Louis spends commuting to the gym can be represented by two expressions:
Time to gym: 
Time from gym: 
To find the expression that represents the total time Louis spends commuting to and from the gym each day :
The total time Louis spends commuting to and from the gym each day is equal to the sum of the Time to gym and Time from gym
Total time Louis spends commuting to and from the gym each day=2x-6y+6x-10y
=8x-16y
=8(x-2y)
Therefore Total time Louis spends commuting to and from the gym each day is 8(x-2y)
The expression that represents the total time Louis spends commuting to and from the gym each day is 8(x-2y)
7/8 + 1/2 x 3/10
= 7/8 +3/20
= 35/40 + 6/40
= 41/40
= 1 1/40 (1 and 1/40)
Answer:
149 liters of test solution (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that 25 mL of dye are mixed with 1.5 L of water to create 1 bottle of solution. If we convert 25mL to L, we get that there is 0.025 L of dye in each solution, and the total amount of liquid in a bottle of test solution is 1.525 L (0.025 + 1.5). Since we have 98 bottles like, the total amount of test solution is 98*1.525, which is 149.45 L. Since we have to round to the nearest whole number, the answer is C, or 149 L.
