ivied the total number of tennis balls buy the number of cans to see how many tennis balls are in 1 can
9 divided by 3 = 3
there are 3 tennis balls per can
fraction would be 3/1 ( meaning 3 balls to 1 can)
The answer is 47.5 feet. Hope I helped!

Explanation:

Note we subtract 3 off the previous term (t1) to get the next term (t2). Each new successive term is found this way

and so on. This process may take a while to reach 
There's a shortcut. The nth term of any arithmetic sequence is

We plug in
and simplify

Then we can plug in various positive whole numbers for n to find the corresponding
value. For example, plug in n = 2

which matches with the second term we found earlier. And,

---------------------
The notation
refers to the sum of the first ten terms 
We could use either the long way or the shortcut above to find all
through
. Then add those values up. Or we can take this shortcut below.

The sum of the first ten terms is -85
-----------------------
As a check for
, here are the first ten terms:
- t1 = 5
- t2 = 2
- t3 = -1
- t4 = -4
- t5 = -7
- t6 = -10
- t7 = -13
- t8 = -16
- t9 = -19
- t10 = -22
Then adding said terms gets us...
5 + 2 + (-1) + (-4) + (-7) + (-10) + (-13) + (-16) + (-19) + (-22) = -85
This confirms that
is correct.
The original price of the hat is $35. Paolo paid $28 for the hat.
So discount for the hat is $(35-28) = $7
$7 is discounted from $35. We have to find the percentage of the discount.
To find the percentage we have to divide the discount amount by the original price and then have to multiply it by 100.
So the discount percentage =
((7/35)×100) %
We can simplify 7/35 by dividing 7 and 35 both by 7. So we will get 1/5 after simplifying.
((1/5) ×100) %
(100/5)% = 20%
So the hat was discounted by 20%.
