Answer:

157 is the 24th term

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arithmetic sequences is an=a1+(n-1)d,

where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term, n is the term position, and d is the common difference

First, we need to find the common difference using the 10.

Since it's the third term, we have 10=-4+(3-1)d

Solving for d gives us d=7

Next, we need to find the term number of 157

Thus, we have 157=-4+(n-1)*7

Solving for n gives us n=24

We can check it like this: Following order of operations (i.e. PEMDAS) gives us 24-1=23*7=161-4=157

Answer:

a₁₅₇ = 1,088

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = a₁ + d(n-1); where 'd' if common difference

a₁₅₇ = -4 + 7(156)

      = -4 + 1092

      = 1,088

NNADVOKAT [17]
1.) You have 12 toppings. You choose one topping--that leaves you with 11 toppings. You choose another--that leaves 10. 12×11×10 = 1,320.
Multiply 1,320 topping choices by 6 cheeses to get 7,920 total combinations.

A photograph of a painting measures 13 units by 17 units. If the scale factor is 1/3, what is the actual size of the painting?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

39 units by 51 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The painting is a scale factor of 1/3, so each side length is 1/3 of the original.  To find the original multiply both side lengths by 3.

13x3 = 39

17 x 3 = 51
