Which of the following is an arithmetic sequence?

MaRussiya [10]3 years ago

Answer: {2, -2, -6, -10}

Arithmetic sequences are defined by a common difference between the numbers that’s both constant and consecutive.

To break it down:

The first option is {-1, 3, -3, -1}, which appears to be alternating, and there is more than 1 difference between the n term values. That is:

-1 to 3 = increase of 4
3 to -3 = decrease of 6
-3 to -1 = increase of 2

Therefore does not follow the definition of an arithmetic sequence.

The second option (the answer) {2, -2, -6, -10} is arithmetic, as it consistently and thus consecutively decreases by 4.

Finally, the last two sequences have the same issue with their pattern, {3, 6, 9, 15}
and {4, 14, 24, 32}. In which they stay constant for the first three n terms, but suddenly change in value on the 4th n term. Therefore, they are not arithmetic.

I hope this helped!

We know that
<span>1 1/8 gallons----------> (1*8+1)/8-------> 9/8 gallons
</span><span>13 1/2  miles----------> (13*2+1)/2-------> 27/2 miles

if 9/8 gallons-------------------> 27/2 miles
 1 gallons----------------------> X
X=(27/2)/(9/8)---------> 216/18--------> 12 miles

the answer is 12 miles</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

A = \frac{1}{2}(b*h)

A=\frac{1}{2} (14*5)

A=\frac{1}{2} (70)

<em>A = 35</em>

<em></em>P = s+s+s<em></em>

<em></em>P=12+14+6<em></em>

Samuel spends a total of $36.75 on 1 bag of popcorn and 3 drinks. Sebastian spends a totally of $138.00 on 3 bags of popcorn and
Ivanshal [37]

Answer: A popcorn costs $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let popcorn be represented by p

Let drinks be represented by d.

Samuel spends a total of $36.75 on 1 bag of popcorn and 3 drinks. This will be: p + 3d = 36.75

Sebastian spends a totally of $138.00 on 3 bags of popcorn and 12 drinks. This will be: 3p + 12d= 138

p + 3d = 36.75 ........... i

3p + 12d = 138 ............ ii

Multiply equation i by 3

Multiply equation ii by 1

3p + 9d = 110.25 ....... iii

3p + 12d = 138 ............ iv

Subtract equation iv from iii

-3d = -27.75

3d = 27.75

Divide both side by 3

d = 9.25

A drink cost $9.25

From equation i

p + 3d = 36.75

P + 3(9.25) = 36.75

P + 27.75 = 36.75

P= 36.75 - 27.75

P= $9

A popcorn cost $9
