    Tn = a1 + (n – 1)d

    T17 = a1 + 16d = – 83

    13 + 16d = – 83

    16d = – 96

    d = – 6

    T35 = a1 + 34d

    = 13 + 34(– 6)

    = – 191 ----- D

    for 2nd question data insufficient.

    answer to #1 is D

    sequence is a, a+n, a+2n......., a+34n

    a=13

    a+16n=-83

    13+16n=-83

    16n=-96

    n=-6

    x=a+34n

    x=13+34*-6

    x=13+-204

    x=-191=D

    the component of a rectangle is comparable to lenght * width. for this reason, if the section is 40 two the lenght must be 21 and the width 2. 2 * 21 = 40 two Now think you halved the width to a million and you doubled the dimensions to 40 two. Now: a million * 40 two = 40 two for this reason the component of the hot rectangle continues to be 40 two
