ALGEBRA
SOLUTION:
1. Find the nth term of the
arithmetic progression 6, 10, 14, By using the formula of the sum
… of an arithmetic progression of n
SOLUTION: terms:
Using the formula:
an = a1 + (n − 1)d
a1= 6 → first term
d = 4 → common differenc
e
We have:
4. A boy is one third as old as his
an = 6 + (n − 1)(4)
brother and 8 years younger than
an = 6 + 4n − 4
his sister. The sum of their ages
an = 2 + 4n
is 38 years. How old is the boy?
SOLUTION:
2. Find the sum up to the 10th term
of the arithmetic progression 6, Let x = boy’s age; Let y = brother’s
10, 14, … age; Let z = sister’s age
SOLUTION:
By using the formula of the sum
of an arithmetic progression of n

2 = 4 + 2x
x = −1
y = 4(−1) + (−1)2
y = −3
Hence, the point is (-1, -3).
