Answer:
5140 and 3140
Step-by-step explanation:
Note there is a common difference d between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is
d = 140 - 40 = 240 - 140 = 340 - 240 = 100
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 40 and d = 100, thus
= 40 + (51 × 100) = 40 + 5100 = 5140
= 40 + (31 × 100) = 40 + 3100 = 3140
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
An airthmetic sequence,
261,256,251
We need to find the 50th term.
We have,
first term, a = 261
common difference = 256-261 = -5
The nth term of the AP is given by :

So, the 50th term of the sequence is 16.

Answer:
3.67 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount is found using the compound interest formula.
A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)
for principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years.
We can solve this for t:
A/P = (1 +r/n)^(nt) . . . . divide by P
log(A/P) = (nt)log(1 +r/n) . . . . take the logarithm
t = log(A/P)/(n·log(1 +r/n)) . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
Filling in the given values, we find ...
t = log(12000/10000)/(4·log(1 +0.05/4)) ≈ 3.6692
It will take about 3.67 years for the balance to reach $12,000.
Answer:
(1, 0.25)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find when f(x)=g(x), then look for a value that is the same for both functions in the table. 0.25 occurs twice for the same x value. This is when they are equal. The solution is (1, 0.25).
