Response:

24 months.

168 sellouts recorded.

7 occurrences each month.

To determine the total months, we simply divide the sellouts by the monthly occurrences.

168/7=24.

24 months.

What is a3 in an arithmetic sequence in which a10=41 and a15=61

zzz [12365]

$\bf \begin{array}{llll}
term&value\\
-----&-----\\
a_{10}&41\\
a_{11}&41+d\\
a_{12}&(41+d)+d\\
&41+2d\\
a_{13}&(41+2d)+d\\
&41+3d\\
a_{14}&(41+3d)+d\\
&41+4d\\
a_{15}&(41+4d)+d\\
&41+5d=61
\end{array}
\\\\\\
41+5d=61\implies 5d=20\implies d=\cfrac{20}{5}\implies \boxed{d=4}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
d=4\\
n=10\\
a_{10}=41
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
41=a_1+(10-1)4\implies 41=a_1+36\implies \boxed{5=a_1}$

therefore

$\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
d=4\\
n=3\\
a_{1}=5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
a_3=a_1+(3-1)4\implies a_3=5+(3-1)4$

and you are probably aware of the amount.

18*2.50=45
50-45=5
Highlighters are priced at $3, which means she bought only one highlighter.
5-3=2
45+3=48
(The last 2 dollars likely account for tax)

In a two-tailed test where the p-value stands at 0.0275, it indicates that with a threshold of 0.025, we should dismiss the hypothesis asserting equal proportion. This conclusion follows from p = 0.0275 in line with the guideline P-value < p.
