Answer: the 32nd term is - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as
Tn = a + d(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
d represents the common difference.
n represents the number of terms in the sequence.
From the information given,
a = 15.6
d = 15 - 15.6 = 14.4 - 15 = - 0.6
n = 32
The explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence is
Tn = 15.6 - 0.6(n - 1)
We want to determine the value of the 32nd term, T32. Therefore,
T32= 15.6 - 0.6 (32 - 1)
T32 = 15.6 - 18.6
T32 = - 3
The answer is 9 just reciprocate the 1/3 and the multiply the 9 by 3
9 million and 9 hundred thousand
9,000,000
and 900,000
