Answer: 13.60 gallons divide 355 by 17 to get the base miles per gallon then use that and divide it 284 by 20.88
Step-by-step explanation:
5,000 - bag of fertilizer
500 - Mike’s lawn
3/4 - applied fertilizer
4 - frequency in 1 year
(500 x 3/4 )x 4
(1500 / 4 ) x 4
1500 sqm / yr
5,000 sqm / 1500sqm/yr
3.33 yr
He will be able to fertilize it in 3 full years
F(n) = 1st term - common difference (n - 1)
The operation is subtraction because the sequence is decreasing.
n = number of the term you are looking for
1st term = 1st number in the sequence, in this case, 16
common difference = difference between one number to the next
f(n) = 16 - 1(n-1)
Assuming we are looking for the 5th term.
f(5) = 16 - 1(5-1)
= 16 - 1(4)
= 16 - 4
= 12 * as you can see, 12 is the 5th term of the sequence.
If you are looking for the equivalent of the nth term, simply substitute n by the number you are looking for and solve the equation.
