We have to apply the simple interest formula:
I = p x r x t
Where :
I = interest
p = principal amount
r= interes rate ( in decimal form, percentage divided by 100)
t= time (years)
Replacing with the values given:
I = 750 x (7/100) x 3
I = 750 x 0.07 x 3
I = $157.7
The answer is 18 dollars. If you subtract the $7 he earned, not originally part of his allowance, you get 9. Multiply by 2 because he spent half on the movies and you get 18.
The leading term is 18, since the term on the right can be simplifies to 18(2x+1)(2-2x). 18 is the first term in the sequence.
