Given that:
a1=27, an=(an-1)+4
the second term will be:
a2=a1+4
a2=27+4=31
The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is given by:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
a= first term
d=common difference
n=nth term
from the information given:
a=27
d=31-27=4
thus the explicit formula will be:
an=27+(n-1)4
an=27+4n-4
an=23+4n
Answer: an=23+4n

Answer:
32 students
Explanation:
We are given that:
Students in the class can either speak French, German or both
15 students know French
17 students know German
Now, the maximum number in the class can be calculated by assuming that no student can speak both languages.
This means that the number of students will be the summation of those who know French only (15) and those who know German only (17)
In this case:
the maximum number of students = 15 + 17 = 32 students
Hope this helps :)
