Answer:

a₁ = - 148

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an AP is

a_{n = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given d = 2 and a₃₁ = - 88 , then

a₁ + (30 × 2) = - 88

a₁ + 60 = - 88 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

a₁ = - 148

8.7 billion in scientific notation
lisov135 [29]
<span><span>1.       </span>Give the scientific notation of 8.7 billion.
8.7 billion = 8 700 000 000
Scientific notation is the process of multiplying the given number by 10 to the power of n.
Since  billion has 9 zeros that’s equals to 10^9
=> 8.7 x 10^9
let’s try solving this
=> 8.7 x (10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10)
=> 8.7 x 1 000 000 000
=> 8 700 000 000
Thus, our scientific notation of 8.7 billion is 8.7 x 10^9</span>

A band expects to put 12 songs on their next CD. The band writes and records 25​% more songs than they expect to put on the CD.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
12 songs. 25% of 12 is 3, so you add 3 to 12 and get 15. You then find that 20% of 15 is 3 so you subtract 3 from 15 and get 12 again.
