At my favorite drugstore, comic books used to cost 10¢ .
(It wasn't yesterday, or even last week. In fact, the drugstore
was burned to the ground during the riots in 1964, and never
rebuilt. But I digress.)
Normally, my parents only let me buy one comic book at a time.
But before I left for summer camp, I could empty my little piggy
and spend it ALL on comic books, all at the same time ! That
was as much fun as the whole 2 weeks at camp !
I emptied my little pig. I had 67¢ in there. I headed for the
drugstore. For the whole rest of the afternoon, I stood at the
magazine rack, carefully deciding on my selections.
How many comic books did I buy ?
What was the remainder ? (How much money did I have left ?)
I need the number to answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the formula
a(n+1)=an−3
The first term a(1) = 31
<u>For</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>second</u><u> </u><u>ter</u><u>m</u>
a(2)
We have
a( 1 + 1) = a(1) - 3
a(2) = 31 - 3
a(2) = 28
<u>For</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>thir</u><u>d</u><u> term</u>
a(3)
We have
a(2+1) = a(2) - 3
a(3) = 28 - 3
a(3) = 25
<u>For</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>four</u><u>th</u><u> term</u>
a(4)
That's
a(3+1) = a(3) - 3
a(4) = 25 - 3
a(4) = 22
Hope this helps you
Answer:
S = 
Step-by-step explanation:

96=(x+8)*x*(x-2)=x^3 +6x^2 -16x. Solve to get x= -6,-4,4. Negative distance doesn't make sense, so x=+4. Therefore, length is (x+8)=(4+8)= 12, width=x=4, and height=(x-2)=(4-2)=2.
