A series can be arithmetic, geometric or neither

The two numbers that come next are 87 and 44

<h3>How to determine the complete series</h3>

The series is given as:

2, 88, 80, 16, 11, 3, 30, 95

In the above series, every 3rd number have a difference of 14.

So, we have:

[2], 88, 80, [16], 11, 3, [30], 95, __, [44]

The difference between other adjacent numbers is 8.

So, we have:

88 - 80 = 8

11 - 3 = 8

95 - x = 8

Collect like terms

x = 95 - 8

Evaluate the like terms

x = 87

So, the complete series is:

[2], 88, 80, [16], 11, 3, [30], 95, 87, [44]

Hence, the two numbers that come next are 87 and 44

(5,-5)(8,-8)
slope = (-8 - (-5) / (8 - 5) = (-8 + 5) / 3 = -3/3 = -1 <==

Consider the arithmetic sequence:

Leona [35]

Answer:

If n is an integer, the function that generate the sequence 10, 12, 14, 16, ... is $\mathbf{d(n)=8+2n\:for\:n>1}$

Option D is correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the arithmetic sequence:

10, 12, 14, 16, ...

If n is an integer, which of these functions generate the sequence?

We need to find the nth term for the given sequence

The nth term for arithmetic sequence will be: $a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

where aₙ is nth term, a₁ is first term and d is common difference

Looking at the sequence a₁ = 10 and d = 2

So, nth term will be:

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_n=10+(n-1)2\\a_n=10+2n-2\\a_n=8+2n$

So, nth term is: $a_n=8+2n$

In the options below, the only correct answer is option D. so, we can write nth term as: $d(n) = 8 + 2n\: for\: n > 1$

So, If n is an integer, the function that generate the sequence 10, 12, 14, 16, ... is $\mathbf{d(n)=8+2n\:for\:n>1}$

Option D is correct option
