Answer:
The expression used to find the nth term of each sequence 9, 17, 25, 33 will be:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence
9, 17, 25, 33
a₁ = 9
<em>Determining the common difference</em>
d = 17-9 = 8
d = 25-17 = 8
d = 33-25 = 8
As the common difference between the adjacent terms is same and equal to
d = 8
Therefore, the given sequence is an Arithmetic sequence.
An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by
substituting a₁ = 9, d = 8 in the equation
Therefore, the expression used to find the nth term of each sequence 9, 17, 25, 33 will be:
With amounts measured in gallons, let
x = amount of 65% antifreeze
y = amount of 90% antifreeze
1 gal of the 65% brand contains 0.65 gal of pure antifreeze; x gal would contain 0.65x gal. Similarly, y gal of the 90% brand contains 0.90y gal of pure antifreeze.
To obtain 120 gal of 80% antifreeze solution (which contains 0.80•120 = 96 gal of pure antifreeze), we must have
x + y = 120 … … … … … [total volume of antifreeze solution]
0.65x + 0.90y = 96 … [total volume of pure antifreeze]
Solve the first equation for y :
y = 120 - x
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for x :
0.65x + 0.90 (120 - x) = 96
0.65x + 108 - 0.90x = 96
0.25x = 12
x = 48
Solve for y :
y = 120 - 48
y = 72
