To find the 20th term in this sequence, we can simply keep on adding the common difference all the way until we get up to the 20th term.
The common difference is the number that we are adding or subtracting to reach the next term in the sequence.
Notice that the difference between 15 and 12 is 3.
In other words, 12 + 3 = 15.
That 3 that we are adding is our common difference.
So we know that our first term is 12.
Now we can continue the sequence.
12 ⇒ <em>1st term</em>
15 ⇒ <em>2nd term</em>
18 ⇒ <em>3rd term</em>
21 ⇒ <em>4th term</em>
24 ⇒ <em>5th term</em>
27 ⇒ <em>6th term</em>
30 ⇒ <em>7th term</em>
33 ⇒ <em>8th term</em>
36 ⇒ <em>9th term</em>
39 ⇒ <em>10th term</em>
42 ⇒ <em>11th term</em>
45 ⇒ <em>12th term</em>
48 ⇒ <em>13th term</em>
51 ⇒ <em>14th term</em>
54 ⇒ <em>15th term</em>
57 ⇒ <em>16th term</em>
60 ⇒ <em>17th term</em>
63 ⇒ <em>18th term</em>
66 ⇒ <em>19th term</em>
<u>69 ⇒ </u><u><em>20th term</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
This means that the 20th term of this arithemtic sequence is 69.

Answer:
54 Pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that they start off with 67.5 pounds of sugar and they need to reduce it by 20%. We also know from the problem that we want to know the MAXIMUM amount of sugar consumed by each track member.
The typical high school student consumes about 67.5 pounds of sugar per year. That is our first piece of the problem
67.5
We now know that 20% of it needs to be reduced. This means that we can multiply it by 0.8 because that is 20% less than 100% of the sugar.
67.5 x 0.8
This leads the answer to be 54 Pounds
Hope this helped :D
