Answer:

1.67hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken by Matt to weed the farm be x and that of Jim be y

When they both work together

x + y = 10

Working alone Jim takes as long as 5 times Matt .

That’s y = 5x

Substitute 5x for y in the first equation

That’s x + 5x = 10

6x = 10

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 10/6

x = 1.67 hrs

It takes Matt 1.67hrs to weed the farm alone

What’s the 38th term of the arithmetic sequence 31,40,49,58?
Trava [24]

Answer:

a_3_8=364

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In an <u><em>Arithmetic Sequence</em></u> the difference between one term and the next is a constant, and this constant is called the common difference

we have

31,40,49,58,...

Let

a_1=31\\a_2=40\\a_3=49\\a_4=58

we have that

a_2-a_1=40-31=9

a_3-a_2=49-40=9

a_4-a_3=58-49=9

so

The common difference is equal to 9

We can write an Arithmetic Sequence as a rule:

a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

where

a_n is the nth term                                                              

a_1 is the first term

d is the common difference                        

n is the number of terms

Find the 38th term of the arithmetic sequence

we have                  

a_1=31\\d=9\\n=38              

substitute the values

a_3_8=31+9(38-1)

a_3_8=31+9(37)

a_3_8=364
