Answer: a(n) = 5 - 3n

the sequence has:

a1 = 2

a2 = -1

a3 = -7

.........

we can see that: a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = -3

=> the sequence is a arithmetic sequence

=> the distance between the numbers is d = -3

because this sequence is a arithmetic sequence

=> a(n) = a1 + (n - 1)d = 2 + (n - 1).(-3) = 5 - 3n

The blue lake trail is 11 3/8 miles long. Gemma has hiked 2 1/3 miles each hour for 3 hours. How far is she from the end of the

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

$4\frac{3}{8}miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Gemma has hiked 2 1/3 mile each hour for a total of 3 hours, you can multiply her rate by her time to find the total distance:

d = rt or d = 2 1/3(3)

$2\frac{1}{3}=\frac{7}{3}$

Multiply: $\frac{7}{3}*\frac{3}{1}=7miles$

Now, that the total length of the trail, 11 3/8 miles, and subtract the distance that Gemma has gone already:

11 3/8 - 7 = $4\frac{3}{8}miles$
