A bag contains 150 marbles. Some are red and the rest are black. There are 28 red marbles for every 2 black marbles. How many red marbles are in the bag?

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.

it should be a and d. lmk if i'm wrong xd
