The sequence is defined as

an = 3an - 1 + 7

This means that

a2 = 3(a(2 - 1) + 7

a2 = 3a1 + 7

From the information given ,

a1 = - 4

Thus,

a2 = 3 * - 4 + 7 = - 12 + 7

a2 = - 5

a3 = 3(a(3 - 1) + 7

a3 = 3a2 + 7

a3 = 3 * - 5 + 7 = - 15 + 7

a3 = - 8

a4 = 3(a(4 - 1) + 7

a4 = 3a3 + 7

a4 = 3 * - 8 + 7 = - 24 + 7

a4 = - 17

Thus, the first four terms of the sequence are

- 4, - 5, -

slega [8]

Answer:

A=5m

Grant will make $60 from selling 12 magazines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent number of magazine sold and A represent amount of money earned.

We have been given that Grant earns $5 for each magazine he sells. So amount earned from m magazines would be 5 times m that is 5m dollars.

Now, we will equate total amount earned by Grant with A as:

A=5m

Therefore, our required equation would be A=5m.

To find the amount earned by Grant by selling 12 magazines, we will substitute m=12 in our equation as:

A=5(12)

A=60

Therefore, Grant will make $60 from selling 12 magazines.
