4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 23 and its 11th term is 65, what is its common difference
1 answer:
Answer:
d = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₄ = 23 and a₁₁ = 65 , then
a₁ + 3d = 23 → (1)
a₁ + 10d = 65 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁
10d - 3d = 65 - 23
7d = 42 ( divide both sides by 7 )
d = 6

Answer: Just apply the formula
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for volume of a cone is:
The radius is the line that creates a 90 degree angle with the height
The height goes from the base to the tip of the cone.
I recommend leaving Pi as it is and plugging the rest of the numbers first.
Then at the end multiply by 3.14 and round at the end.
This way, it is easier to avoid calculation errors.
