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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) you know interest is 22 and principal is 1000 and number of months is 1

b) I = rPm

   r = I/Pm

c) r = 22 / 1000(1) = 0.022 /month or 2.2% per month

or 12(0.022) = 0.264 or 26.4 % per year.

d) interest is $15, loan period is 2 weeks which occurs once during the loan, interest rate is 10% per two weeks.

P = I/rm

e) P = 15 / 0.10 = $150

Notice that there are 52 weeks/yr / 2week loan period = 26 period in a year.

This means that the APR is 0.10(26) = 2.60 or 260% annual interest rate. Pretty good return on investment if you are the lender and can keep your money lent out. Not so good if you are the borrower.
