1250,Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Reetu paid for the watch x Rs. Then Reetu sold the watch to Reshmi having 20% profit => the selling price is 1.2*x

Then Teshmi sold the wathes with 10% loss (or 0.9 from purchase price 1.2x)   to Nikita, i.e. selling price is

1.2*x*0.9=1350

1.08*x=1350

x=1350:1.08

x=1250, Rs

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.
