a is the fifth term of a sequence. It represents the value of a depreciating

5 asset (your car) after 5 years have gone by since its purchase.

24,000 (really, $24,000) represents the initial value of the car.

(3/4) is the common ratio. Since (3/4) is between 0 and 1, we know the car is depreciating (losing value) each year, and that the value of the car at the end of this year is (3/4) times the previous value.

18. The table shows the amount of money in a savings account after several weeks

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a. Arithmetic

b. $a_{n} = a_{n-1} + 15$

c. $a_{n} = 15n + 125$

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is arithmetic when the difference between one term and the next is a constant. On the other hand, a sequence is geometric when the next term is found by multiplying the previous by a constant.

In this case, the next term of the sequence can be found by adding $15. Therefore, the sequence is ARITHMETIC ✔️

The recursive formula will be the following: $a_{n} = a_{n-1} + 15$

The explicit formula is the following: $a_{n} = 15n + 125$
