Answer:

<u><em>Christopher is 24 years old.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>c = Christopher's age</u>

<u>i = Ishaan</u>

c = i - 20

(i- 14) = 3(c - 14)

<em>simplify</em>

i - 14 = 3c - 42

i - 14 = 3(i - 20) - 42

i - 14 = 3i - 60 - 42

i - 14 = 3i - 102

<em>take i to the other side</em>

- 14 = 2i - 102

<em>take - 102 to the other side</em>

88 = 2i

44 = i

<u>Ishaan is 44 years old.</u>

<em>The question said to find Christopher's age. So:</em>

c = i - 20

c = 44 - 20

c = 24

<u><em>Christopher is 24 years old.</em></u>

A rectangular area of land is being sold off in smaller pieces. The total area of the land is 2^15 square miles. The pieces bein
Nesterboy [21]
Total area of the rectangular land = 2^15 sq. miles
                                                     = 32768 sq. miles

total area of the pieces being sold = 8^3 sq. miles
                                                       = 512 sq. miles

now total no. of pieces = total area of the land / the area of samaller land that's                                                                                     being sold
                                     = 32768 / 512
                                     = 64

so the actual number of pieces is 64

Ok So I an taking algebra 1 and this question is really confusing me.
V125BC [204]
You use the arithmetic sequence formula and input the information given to you.
tn = a + (n-1)d
t(56) is what your looking for so don't worry about the tn.
a is your first term,
a = 15.
n is the position of the term you are looking for, n = 56.
And d is the common difference, you find this by taking t2 and subtracting t1. t2=18 and t1=15.
d = 18 - 15 = 3
Inputting it all into the formula you get,
t(56) = 15 + (56-1)(3)
term 56 = 180.
You use this formula to find any term in a sequence provided you are given enough info. You can also manipulate it if you are asked to find something else like the first term(a), common difference(d) or term position(n). It just depends on what the question is asking and what information you are given. :)
Hope this helps!
