One day Pat Unger worked for a total of 8 hours. She worked 3 hours more in the after-
noon than she worked in the morning. How
long did she work in the afternoon?

5.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of hours worked in morning by Pat = x hours

given that "She worked 3 hours more in the after-

noon than she worked in the morning"

No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = x + 3  hours

Total hours worked in the day = x + x+3 = 2x +3 hours  (1)

It is given that Pat worked for 8 hours that day (2)

thus, using 1 and 2 we have

2x +3  =  8

=>2x = 8 - 3 = 5

=> x = 5/2 = 2.5

no. of hours worked in morning by Pat = x hours = 2.5 hours

No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = x + 3  hours = 2.5 + 3 hours

 No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = 5.5 hours --- Answer.

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.

so what is the question
