Answer:

2685

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:

aₙ = a₁ + d (n − 1)

where a₁ is the first term and d is the common difference.

Here, a₁ = -12 and d = 7:

aₙ = -12 + 7 (n − 1)

aₙ = -12 + 7n − 7

aₙ = -19 + 7n

The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence is:

S = (n/2) (a₁ + aₙ)

First, we find the 30th term:

a₃₀ = -19 + 7(30)

a₃₀ = 191

Now we find the sum:

S = (30/2) (-12 + 191)

S = 2685

Explain why a change from 20 to 40 is a 100% increase, but a change from 40 to 20 is a 50% decrease.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Because 20 has to be doubled to become 40. While 40 is twice as much as 20 so you just divide 40 by 20 to get 50%.

Explanation:

20 x 20 = 40 = 100%

40 / 20 = 50%
