Answer:

The explicit formula

a_n = 3 +0.25 (n-1)

The recursive formula

a_1 = 3                            for n=1

a_n = a_ {(n-1)} +0.25     if n>1

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sequence is arithmetical then the difference between any of its consecutive terms will be constant

3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75,

3.25-3 = 0.25\\\\3.5-3.25 = 0.25\\\\3.75 -3.5 = 0.25

The difference between the consecutive terms remains constant so the sequence is arithmetic.

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is:

a_n = a_1 + d (n-1)

Where d is the constant difference between the terms.

d = 0.25

a_1 is the first term of the sequence.

a_1 = 3

So

a_n = 3 +0.25 (n-1)

Finally, the recursive formula is:

a_1 = 3\\\\a_n = a_ {(n-1)} +0.25

Answer:12 feet by 9 feet


Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 = 3 feet, so every 1/4 of an inch there is three feet, e.g. 3/4 inches of that scale is 9 feet, 1 1/2 inches would be 18 feet, make sense?
