The sequence described is 130, 143, 156, 169, ...

To write the general formula/rule of the arithmetic sequence described above, we will use the the general term of arithmetic progressions formula:

T_{n}=a+(n-1)d

Where,

  • a is the first term,
  • d is the common difference (difference in 2 terms)
  • n is the index of the term

Plugging in 130 as a and 143-130=13 as d, we get,

T_{n}=130+(n-1)(13)\\ = 130 + 13n - 13\\=117+13n

We can use this model to write our own rule:

H=117+13x

Where,

  • H is the height of the bamboo plant, in inches
  • x is the day number, starting from x=1 as DAY 1

To find how tall the plant will be on Day 13, we plug in 13 for x in the formula and get,

H=117+13(13)=286 inches.


ANSWER:

<u>Rule:</u> H=117+13x (H is height, in inches, and x is the Day Number)

13 days later, height of plant will be 286 inches.

Well, (y for bamboo plant, x per day) y=130+13x  just use 13 for x for the second part. (It is 169+130. 299.)

2. (x , y) → (y , -x) = Rotation 90 counterclockwise ; congruent
3. (x , y) → (-x , y) = Reflection over y-axis ; congruent
4. (x , y) → (-x , -y) = Rotation 180 ; congruent
5. (x , y) → (x, -y) = Reflection over x-axis ; congruent
6. (x , y) → (-y , x) = Rotation 90 clockwise ; congruent
7. (x , y) → (x + a , y + b) = Translation ; congruent

Hope this helps :)
