Answer:
The 17th term in arithmetic sequence is 68
Step-by-step explanation:
The general formula of arithmetic sequence is:
aₙ = a₁ + (n – 1)d.
We are given a₆ = 101 and a₉ = 83 and we need to find a₁₇
To find the term a₁₇ we should know a₁ and d. So we would find both
a₆ = a₁ +(6-1)d
101 = a₁ +(5)d
101 = a₁ +5d eq(1)
and
a₉ = a₁ +(9-1)d
83 = a₁ + 8d eq(2)
Subtracting eq(2) from eq(1)
101 = a₁ +5d
83 = a₁ + 8d
- - -
__________
18 = -3d
=> d = 18/-3
=> d = -6
Putting value of d in eq(1)
101 = a₁ + 5d
101 = a₁ + 5(-3)
101 = a₁ -15
=> a₁ = 101+15
=> a₁ = 116
Now finding a₁₇:
aₙ = a₁ + (n – 1)d.
a₁₇ = 116 +(17-1)(-3)
a₁₇ = 116+(16)(-3)
a₁₇ = 116 - 48
a₁₇ = 68
So, the 17th term in arithmetic sequence is 68
1/2 is 8/16 in lowest term
27/60 = 0.45/1%
0.45 x 100 = 45
Samuel has a total of 45 cars, 60% of the total cars are red. Which is 27 red, and 45 total cars.
