x - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
x is how much Juan spent. Linda spent 17 less. x - 17 = How much Linda spent
The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
a=first term
d=common difference
given:
a3=22
a(17)=-20
substituting this in our equation we get:
22=a+(3-1)d
22=a+2d
a=22-2d........i
also:
-20=a+(17-1)d
-20=a+16d.....ii
but substituting i in ii we get:
-20=22-2d+16d
-20-22=14d
-42=14d
d=-3
but:
a=22-2d
a=22-2(-3)
a=28
thus the formula will be:
an=28-3(n-1)
thus the first term will be 28
the 2nd term will be:
a2=28-3(2-1)
a2=25
the 3rd term will be:
a3=28-3(3-1)
a3=28-6
a3=22
a4=28-3(4-1)
a4=28-9
a4=15
a5=28-3(5-1)
a5=28-3(4)
a5=28-12
a5=15
Answer:
the answer should be c.
Step-by-step explanation:
here's why....A uses 4 more which is adding. B uses 4 fewer which is subtracting and D does not complete so it should be C.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change is computed as follows:
percent change = ((new value) -(original value))/(original value) × 100%
For your first one, this looks like ...
percent change = ($25 -$75)/$75 × 100% = (-50/75) × 100% = -0.667×100%
percent change = -66.7%

When there are a lot of similar calculations to do, I like to use a spreadsheet. See below for the other percentage changes (rightmost column).
