Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Go up by 2 each time. answer is 20
1 book is 17.55
2 books is 16.70
3 books is 15.85
4 books is 15
5 books is 4.15
6 books is 4.30
7 books is (3.55)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve these problems, just figure out the sequence, multiply, then add.
In the first problem, the terms progress by -3
So, the 5th term would be -3 x 4 + -19:
-3 x 4 = -12 -12 + -19 = -31 The 5th term is -31.
Do the same for the 9th and 100th term:
-3 x 8 = -24 - 24 + -19 = -43 The 9th term is -43.
-3 x 99 = -297 - 297 + -19 = -316 The 100th term is -316.
For the second problem, The numbers progress by + 10.
So let's do the same thing as last time!
The 5th term is 44.
The 9th term is 84.
The 100th term is 994.
In this last problem, the sequence <u><em>is</em></u> geometric.
How?
Each number is multiplied by -6.
-6 x -1 = 6
-6 x 6 = -36
-6 x -36 = 216
And the next number would be:
-6 x 216 = -1,296
