Re: Compute the solution:

Hi bobbym,

The solutions 200 and 201 are correct. Excellent!

The only discrepancy is 201 (former part). I get a5 = -21.

202. Find the 18th and 25th terms of the sequence defined by

= n(n + 3),  if n ∈ N and n is even;

, if n ∈ N and n is odd.

Re: Compute the solution:

The average age of 10 members of a committee is the same as it was 4 years ago, because an old member has been replaced by a young member.

Find how much younger is the new member ?
