Answer:
1134.62 (THE SUM OF 20 TERMS)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we write out our given information:
a8=2a2
a11=18
an is an arithmetic sequence.
Where here an means the nth term of our sequence.
What does an arithmetic sequence mean? It means to get to the next term in your sequence you add a constant (c) each time:
an+1=an+c
Equivalently:
an+1−an(n+1)−n=c
So an is of slope c (c2 is another constant):
an=cn+c2
Where here c2=a0 (Substitute in n=0 and see why that has to be the case if we let a0 exist)
Now we use the other given information to try to come up with a solution.
Let n=2:
a2=2c+c2
Let n=8, using the above equation we have:
a8=8c+c2=2a2=4c+2c2
Let n=11
a11=18
a11=11c+c2
But a11−a8=(11c+c2)−(8c+c2)=3c
Hence, a11=3c+a8
a11=3c+4c+2c2=18
a11=3c+8c+c2=18
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
For us to find out how many times more expensive is the deli roast compared to the uncooked roast we need to change the units;
cost of 100g=0.221lb is $2.99
cost of 1 lb will therefore be:
1/0.221*2.99
=$13.53/lb
therefore the number of times more expensive the deli roast is compared to uncooked roast is:
[price of 1lb roasted meat]/[price of 1 lb uncooked meat]
=13.53/4.99
=2.7 times
The answer for the first one is 1/8 and the answer to the second one is 1/2
I think is 2.5 centimeters
