Answer:

The nth term = 9n - 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an Arithmetic Sequence with common difference d =

10 - 1 = 19 - 10 = 28 - 19 = 9.

The nth term an = a1 + (n - 1)d where a1 = the first term and d = the common difference.

So the nth term = 1 + (n - 1)9

= 1 + 9n - 9

= 9n - 8.

Answer:

9n - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is arithmetic since the difference between consecutive terms is common

d = 10 - 1 = 19 - 10 = 28 - 19 = 9

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

here a₁ = 1 and d = 9, thus

$a_{n}$ = 1 + 9(n - 1) = 1 + 9n - 9 = 9n - 8, hence

$a_{n}$ = 9n - 8

The number of employees for a certain company has been decreasing each year by 3%. If the company currently has 810 employees an

8090 [49]

Answer:

219 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

3% of decreasing rate of employees per year is calculated thus:

$3\% \: of \: 810 \: employees$

$= \frac{3}{100} \times 810$

$= 24.3 \: employees \: per \: year$

In 9 years,

$= 24.3 \times 9$

$= 218.7 = 219 \: employees$

Therefore, the number of employees for a certain company where decreasing rate of employees is 3% and continued to decrease for 9 years; and 810 employees are currently working is 219 employees. By implication, 810 + 219 = 1029 employees were working in the company 9 years ago.

Can someone help me with this question

Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For any prism or cylinder for that matter, you can find the volume by multiplying the area of the base times the height. So this problem just becomes simple algebra.

B * h = V

25 * h = 80

h = 80/25

h = 3.2

If you don't get why it's the area of the base let me know and I can try to explain it.
