286.36mph. ( .36 is a repeating decimal )
Using the distributive property is done by multiplying the factor (outside the parentheses) to each term within it. In this case, 8(3 + 4), we multiply the 8 by 3, and then add it to the product of 8 x 4:
8(3 + 4) = 8 x 3 + 8 x 4 = 24 + 32
If we need to simplify further, this adds up to 56.
Answer:
The twentieth term is 50.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that describes the arithmetic sequence describes it's "general term", which means that all the numbers in that sequence must follow that equation. For instance, if we want to find the first term of the sequence we must make a = 1 and we have:
a1 = 3*1 - 10
a1 = -7
Therefore to find the twentieth term we need to make n equal to 20. This is done below:
a20 = 3*20 - 10
a20 = 60 - 10
a20 = 50
The twentieth term is 50.
