d = 3 , a₁₂ = 40 and S = 7775
In an arithmetic sequence the nth term and sum to n terms are
<h3>• a
= a₁ + (n-1)d</h3><h3>• S
=
[2a + (n-1)d]</h3><h3>
where d is the common difference</h3><h3>a₆ = a₁ + 5d = 22 ⇒ 7 + 5d = 22 ⇒ 5d = 15 ⇔ d = 3</h3><h3>a₁₂ = 7 + 11d = 7 +( 11× 3) = 7 + 33 = 40</h3><h3>S₁₀₀ =
[(2×7) +(99×3)</h3><h3> = 25(14 + 297) = 25(311)= 7775</h3>
Let x = Barbie's number
1/3 x -20 = 72
1/3 x = 92
x = 92*3=276
Answer:
the answer is "B" (thank me later) ;))
