Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The starting term is a1.

That's the very first term.

a1 = - 10

The second term = -17 which means that you added - 7 to - 10.

So d must be - 7

The formula must be

an = a1 + (n - 1)*d

an = -10 + (n - 1)(-7)

You might wonder why it is n - 1. The reason is because the first term is already added on the right side. The -1 means that we have already included the first term.

We should try the formula out to see what it does. Let's find a4

a4 = -10 + (4 -1)*-7

a4 = -10 + 3(-7)

a4 = -10 - 21

a4 = - 31 which is what the question suggests.

Solve the equation: n + 32 = 60.
Digiron [165]
N + 32 = 60

First, so basically, we are trying to find a number that can add up with 32 to equal 60. The easiest route to solve this is to simply take 32 and subtract it from 60.
n = 60 - 32

Second, once we subtract, we will be given the answer and know what 'n' is. Subtract 60 - 32 to get your answer. 60 - 32 = 28
n = 28

Third, know that we know that the answer to 'n' is 28, we can check it by adding 28 + 32. Your answer should be 60, and 28 is the correct answer.

Answer: \fbox {n = 28}
