Answer:

$a_{n}$ = - 3n - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 6 and d = a₂ - a₁ = - 9 - (- 6) = - 9 + 6 = - 3 , then

$a_{n}$ = - 6 - 3(n - 1) = - 6 - 3n + 3 = - 3n - 3

rank has a circular garden. The area of the garden is 100 ft2. What is the approximate distance from the edge of Frank’s garden

Ray Of Light [21]

It is given that the area of the circular garden = 100 $ft^2$

Area of circle with radius 'r' = $\pi r^2$

We have to determine the approximate distance from the edge of Frank’s garden to the center of the garden, that means we have to determine the radius of the circular garden.

Since, area of circular garden = 100

$\pi r^2 = 100$

$\frac{22}{7} \times r^2 = 100$

$r^2 = \frac{700}{22}$

$r^2 = 31.8$

$r = \sqrt{31.8}$

So, r = 5.6 ft

r = 6 ft (approximately)

Therefore, the approximate distance from the edge of Frank’s garden to the center of the garden is 6 ft.

So, Option A is the correct answer.
