All 150 eighth grade students at a local middle school were asked how many hours they studied during the week. Each row of the table represents one sample from the population. Find the mean Of each sample Which row has the greatest mean?
1
2
3
4

step-by-step explanation: so we look at the formula un = a + (n-1)d

un is the amount of seats

n is the nth term aka row number

a is the original sequence/row number

d is the difference between each term

so in this a=22 d=6 and n can remain as n because we are simply formjng a rule

lets put these in the equation

un=22+(n-1)(6)

this is your answer to part a

however

lets double check that this is correct, we'll try putting it into the second term

un=a+(n-1)d

u2=22+(2-1)(6)

u2=22+6

u2=28

as the question said the second row has 28 seats so now we know the formula we made is correct.

as for part b

un=a+(n-1)

its asking us to find a row with 100 seats.

remember un was the amount of seata so all we do is substitute this in.

un=100 a=22 d=6

un=a+(n-1)d

100=22+(n-1)(6)

so now we simplify to find n which is the row number.

100-22=22+(n-1)(6)-22

78=(n-1)(6)

78/6=(n-1)(6)/6

13=n-1

13+1=n-1+1

14=n

so now we know that in the 14th row there is 100 seats.

hope this and that you understood! its my first time using the app or anyone out on here : p its also me to revise so a bunch! ask more questions if you dont understand ☺

just pick what you think i need more time let me know if this

step-by-step explanation:

an = 22 + (n-1) *6

110 seats

step-by-step explanation:

an=a1+(n-1)(d)

a1 = 22   this is the first item in the sequence

d =6   this is how the sequence goes up

a)   an = 22 + (n-1) *6

b) a12 = 22 + (12-1) *6

    a12 = 22+11*6

  a12 = 22 +88

  a12 = 110
