Sequence will look like this:
Term 1: 20 --------- 20 + 5(0)
Term 2: 25 --------- 20 + 5(1)
Term 3: 30 --------- 20 + 5(2)
Term 4: 35 --------- 25 + 5(3)
ETC.
It cab noted that the numbers in the bracket (that is, 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, etc) = n-1
Then, the explicit formula will be;
an = 20 + 5(n-1).
The correct answer is D.
Brother one: x
Brother two: x + 15
---
Make them add up to 55 in an equation.
x + (x + 15) = 55
Combine like terms.
2x + 15 = 55
Subtract 15 from both sides.
2x = 40
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 20
Plug 20 for x into brother two.
(20) + 15 = 35
Brother one has saved $20, brother two has saved $35.
Answer:
y will increase by 8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 8x+2
We increase x by 1
Replace x with x+1
y = 8(x+1) +2
y = 8x+8+2
y = 8x+2 +8
y will increase by 8
Answer:
