Ok, this is what you do,
7(^^^^^
84
7 goes into 8 1 time so it would be this
1
7(^^^^
84
- 7
and it leaves you with 14
1
7(^^^^
14
then how many time does 7 go into 14? 2 times
so it would be
12
7(^^^^
14
-14
AND YOUR ANSWER IS 12.
We know f(x)=5x+1. Plug in f(x) in the g(x) function.
We get

Distribute the 2 to 5x and 1.

Simplify to get

Now, we plug in -1 for x.


Let
denote the <em>k</em>th term of the sequence. Then

where <em>d</em> is the common difference between consecutive terms in the sequence and <em>a</em>₁ is the first term.
The sum of the first <em>n</em> terms is

From the formula for
, we get




So we have
, and
so that
.
Then the <em>n</em>th term in the sequence is
