Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
the sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is
=
[2a + (n - 1)d ]
where d is the common difference and a is the first term
here d = 9 - 7 = 7 - 5 = 2 and a = 5, hence
=
[(2 × 5) + 2(n - 1) ]
=
(10 + 2n - 2)
=
(2n + 8)
= n² + 4n
When sum = 165, then
n² + 4n = 165 ← rearrange into standard form
n² + 4n - 165 = 0 ← in standard form
(n + 15)(n - 11) = 0 ← in factored form
equate each factor to zero and solve for n
n + 15 = 0 ⇒ n = - 15
n - 11 = 0 ⇒ n = 11
but n > 0 ⇒ n = 11
Answer:
i would say about $1.85
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 16 cups in one gallon and so you at 16+16 and you get 32 so you devide 59.20 by 32 and you get your answer. 1.85
Answer:
You are currently 40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.
x = current age
The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"
This can be represented like this:
1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13
Now we solve for x using basic algebra:
1/2(x) = x - 20
-1/2(x) = -20
x = 40
To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:
1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13
20 + 7 = 27
27 = 27
