The common difference
(-73 - -40)/(28 - 17) = -3
Term a1: -40 - (-3*(17-1)) = 8
Term a2: 8+-3=5
Term a3: 2
Term a4: -1
Term a5: -4
(-2,6) (5,-8)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-8 - 6) / (5 - (-2) = -14/7 = -2 <==
midpoint = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2
m = (-2 + 5)/2 , (6 - 8)/2
m = (3/2, -1) <===
distance = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
d = sqrt ((5 - (-2)^2 + (-8 - 6)^2)
d = sqrt ((5 + 2)^2 + (-14^2))
d = sqrt (7^2 + 14^2)
d = sqrt (49 + 196)
d = sqrt 245
d = 15.65 <==

<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
A composite figure is formed by two or more basic figures or shapes. In this problem, we have a composite figure formed by a cylinder and a hemisphere as shown in the figure below, so the volume of this shape as a whole is the sum of the volume of the cylinder and the hemisphere:

So:

From the figure the radius of the hemisphere is the same radius of the cylinder and equals:

And the height of the cylinder is:

So:

The volume of a hemisphere is half the volume of a sphere, hence:

Finally, the volume of the composite figure is:

Convert 8% too decimal form = 8/100 = .08
1250 * .08 = 100
1250 + 100 = 1350
To find out how many payments of 120 can be made :
120x = 1350
divide both sides by 120
x = 11.25 payments of $120
since .25 is a fraction calculate the actual $ amount by mult. 120 * .25 = $30
The last payment is $30
