For an arithmetic sequence, the nth term is the first term plus (n-1)×the differece
the first term is 28, the difference between each adjacent number is 8
so -36=(28)+8(n-1)
8(n-1)=64
n-1=8
n=9
the 9th term is -36

PLEASE HELP!
alexdok [17]

Answer:

1. >

2. <

3. =

Step-by-step explanation:

100x8=800, 4*7=28, multiplied by 25 is 700, therefore making 800 greater than 700. Whenever comparing two multiplication problems, multiplying large numbers produces large results, so whichever starts larger will have an end result that is larger. 100 was large and it is smaller to its counter 25.

36 elevens really means 11x36, which is 396. 40 elevens really means 40x11, which is 440 minus 11x3 which is 407. 407 is greater than 396. The same logic applies here as the previous answer, the only difference is that the removal of three elevens is still larger than 36 elevens in this case.

12x24=288, 6x24=144, doubled makes it 288. In this case, the six is half of the twelve to begin with and then is made up for later by the fact that it is doubled.

When I solve math questions like these, I ignore the fact that it doesn't want a mathematical answer, do the math anyway and pull logic from it. (If your teacher checks, do it on a separate piece of paper, and then toss it.)

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Sacramento is 8cm from San Francisco.

8cm in map = 91 miles

91/8 = 11.375

1cm in map = 11.375 miles

Sacramento is 7 cm away from Modesto.

7 · 11.375 = 79.625

The actual distance is 79.625 miles
