Part (i)

I'm going to use the notation T(n) instead of T_n

To find the first term, we plug in n = 1

T(n) = 2 - 3n

T(1) = 2 - 3(1)

T(1) = -1

The first term is -1

Repeat for n = 2 to find the second term

T(n) = 2 - 3n

T(2) = 2 - 3(2)

T(2) = -4

The second term is -4

<h3>Answers: -1, -4</h3>

==============================================

Part (ii)

Plug in T(n) = -61 and solve for n

T(n) = 2 - 3n

-61 = 2 - 3n

-61-2 = -3n

-63 = -3n

-3n = -63

n = -63/(-3)

n = 21

Note that plugging in n = 21 leads to T(21) = -61, similar to how we computed the items back in part (i).

<h3>Answer:  21st term</h3>

===============================================

Part (iii)

We're given that T(n) = 2 - 3n

Let's compute T(2n). We do so by replacing every copy of n with 2n like so

T(n) = 2 - 3n

T(2n) = 2 - 3(2n)

T(2n) = 2 - 6n

Now subtract T(2n) from T(n)

T(n) - T(2n) = (2-3n) - (2-6n)

T(n) - T(2n) = 2-3n - 2+6n

T(n) - T(2n) = 3n

Then set this equal to 24 and solve for n

T(n) - T(2n) = 24

3n = 24

n = 24/3

n = 8

This means 2n = 2*8 = 16. So subtracting T(8) - T(16) will get us 24.

<h3>Answer: 8</h3>

An airplane travels 800 miles with the wind in the same of time it takes to travel 650 miles against the wind. What is the speed
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

90 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Against wind DATA:

distance = 600 miles ; time = 5 hrs. ; rate = 600/5 = 120 mph

With wind DATA:

distance = 600 miles ; time = 2 hrs ; rate = 600/2 = 300 mph

Equations:

p + w = 300

p - w = 120

2p = 420

p = 210 mph (speed of the plane in still air)

Since p+w = 300, w = 300-210 = 90 mph (speed of the wind)
