Answer:

  62

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of an arithmetic sequence with first term a1 and common difference d is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

The sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence is ...

  Sn = (2·a1 +d(n -1))(n/2)

Using these relations and the given values of a11 and s11, we can find a1 and d:

  a11 = a1 +d(11 -1) = 32

  S11 = (2·a1 +d(11 -1))(11/2) = 187

These simplify to ...

  a1 +10d = 32

  2a1 +10d = 34 . . . . multiply the second equation by 2/11

__

Subtracting the first of these from the second, we get ...

  a1 = 2

Then the common difference is ...

  d = (32 -2)10 = 3

And the 21st term is ...

  a21 = 2 +3(21 -1) = 62

The 21st term is 62.

© Given that R= 9x + 8y
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

-19/9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would plug in the numbers for y and r. Therefore, your equation should now be 5 = 9x + 24. Now you would put like terms on the same side. It now then look like -19 = 9x. You divide by 9 to get the x by itself. The answer should be x = -19/9.

If the m∠X = 34° and the m∠Z = 26°, what is the m∠Y? m∠Y = 26° m∠Y = 34° m∠Y = 60° m∠Y = 120°
Alik [6]
Answer is 120 because all of the angles add up to 180. 180-26-34= Y
