100, 75, 50, 25, 0, -25 What is the next number? What is the 100th term?
100, 75, 50, 25, 0, -25 What is the next number? What is the 100th term? Using point slope, we get (1, 100)(2, 75) Our [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/search.php?q=%281%2C+100%29%282%2C+75%29&x=0&y=0']series function becomes[/URL] f(n) = -25n + 125 The next term is the 7th term: f(7) = -25(7) + 125 f(7) = -175 + 125 f(7) = [B]-50 [/B] The 100th term is found by n = 100: f(100) = -25(100) + 125 f(100) = -2500 + 125 f(100) = [B]-2375[/B]

5, 14, 23, 32, 41....1895 What term is the number 1895? Set up a point slope for the first 2 points: (1, 5)(2, 14) Using [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/search.php?q=%281%2C+5%29%282%2C+14%29&x=0&y=0']point slope formula, our series function[/URL] is: f(n) = 9n - 4 To find what term 1895 is, we set 9n - 4 = 1895 and solve for n: 9n - 4 = 1895 Using our [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=9n-4%3D1895&pl=Solve']equation solver[/URL], we get: n = [B]211[/B]

A members-only speaker series allows people to join for $16 and then pay $1 for every event attended
A members-only speaker series allows people to join for $16 and then pay $1 for every event attended. What is the maximum number of events someone can attend for a total cost of $47? Subtract the join fee from the total cost: $47 - $16 = $31 Now divide this number by the cost per event: $31 / $1 = [B]31 events[/B]

DeAndre is a spelunker (someone who explores caves). One day DeAndre is exploring a cave that has a series of ladders going down into the depths. Every ladder is exactly 10 feet tall, and there is no other way to descend or ascend (the other paths in the cave are flat). DeAndre starts at 186 feet in altitude, and reaches a maximum depth of 86 feet in altitude.Write an equation for DeAndre's altitude, using x to represent the number of ladders DeAndre used (hint: a ladder takes DeAndre down in altitude, so the coefficient should be negative). Set up a function A(x) for altitude, where x is the number of ladders used. Each ladder takes DeAndre down 10 feet, so this would be -10x. And DeAndre starts at 186 feet, so we'd have: [B]A(x) = 186 - 10x[/B]

Jake Callahan stars in the new TV series Stone Simons: Kid Astronaut. The day after the first episode airs, Jake receives a bunch of fan mail. He splits all the letters into 3 equal stacks to open with his mom and his sister. Each stack contains 21 letters. Which equation can you use to find the number of letters n Jake receives? The number of letters n is represented by number of stacks (s) times letter per stack (l). We're given s = 3 and l = 21, so we have: n = 21(3) n = [B]63[/B]

Oakdale School is sponsoring a canned food drive. In the first week of the drive, the students collected 638 cans. They collected 698 cans in the second week and 758 cans in the third week. If the students continue to collect cans at this rate, in which week will they collect more than 1,000 cans? We have an arithmetic sequence where each successive term increases by 50. [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/sequenceag.php?num=638%2C698%2C758&n=10&pl=Calculate+Series&a1=5&d=3']Using our sequence calculator[/URL], we find that week #8 is when the students cross 1,000 cans.

Van needs to enter a formula into a spreadsheet to show the outputs of an arithmetic sequence that starts with 13 and continues to add seven to each output. For now, van needs to know what the 15th output will be. Complete the steps needed to determine the 15th term in sequence. Given a first term a1 of 13 and a change amount of 7, expand the series The explicit formula for an [I]arithmetic series[/I] is an = a1 + (n - 1)d d represents the common difference between each term, an - an - 1 Looking at all the terms, we see the common difference is 7, and we have a1 = 13 Therefore, our explicit formula is an = 13 + 7(n - 1) If n = 15, then we plug it into our explicit formula above: an = 13 + 7(n - 1) a(15) = 15 + 7(15 - 1) a(15) = 15 + 7 * 14 a(15) = 15 + 98 a(15) = [B]113[/B]

What is the 1000th term in the series 0, 7, 14, 21, … ?
Map this out as a function with term number n and value 1, 0 2, 7 3, 14 4, 21 The values jump by 7, but they do so as the n - 1 term. We have the series formula S(n) = 7(n - 1) The problem asks for S(1000) S(1000) = 7(1000 - 1) S(1000) = 7(999) S(1000) = [B]6,993[/B] [MEDIA=youtube]ZF10Ec29XKo[/MEDIA]
