We're given the Arithmetic Progression <em>-24, -4, 16, 36 ...</em> .

We know that a term in an AP is generally represented as:

\bf a_n\ =\ a\ +\ (n\ -\ 1)d

where,

  • a = the first term in the sequence
  • n = the number of the term/number of terms
  • d = difference between two terms

We need to find \sf a_2_3.

From the given progression, we have:

  • a = -24
  • n = 23
  • d = (-24 - (-4) = -20

Using these in the formula,

\sf a_2_3\ =\ a\ +\ (n\ -\ 1)d\\\\\\a_2_3\ =\ -24\ +\ (23\ -\ 1)\ \times\ (-20)\\\\\\a_2_3\ =\ -24\ +\ 22\ \times (-20)\\\\\\a_2_3\ =\ -24\ -\ 440\\\\\\\bf a_2_3\ =\ -464

Therefore, the 23rd term in the AP is -464.

Hope it helps. :)

N = 5

But wait! It's a decimal so it has to be negative.

N = -5

Answer:

1) n = 84

2) n = 78

3) n = 24

4) n = 16

5) n = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve each proportion, we apply cross multiplication.

Question 1:

\frac{5}{12} = \frac{35}{n}

5n = 35*12

Simplifying both sides by 5

n = 7*12 = 84

Question 2:

\frac{n}{52} = \frac{180}{120}

120n = 52*180

Simplifying both sides by 20

6n = 52*9

Simplifying by 3

2n = 52*3

Simplifying by 2

n = 26*3 = 78

Question 3:

\frac{18}{n} = \frac{21}{28}

21n = 18*28

Simplifying both sides by 7

3n = 18*4

Simplifying both sides by 3

n = 6*4 = 24

Question 4:

\frac{n}{4} = \frac{24}{6}

\frac{n}{4} = 4

n = 16

Question 5:

\frac{10}{16} = \frac{n}{56}

16n = 56*10

Simplifying by 2, both sides

8n = 56*5

Simplifying by 8, both sides

n = 7*5 = 35
