Which of the following is the explicit rule for the sequence -3, 5, 13, 21 ... *
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

a_{n} = 8n - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

5 - (- 3) = 13 - 5 = 21 - 13 = 8

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 3 and d = 8 , thus

a_{n} = - 3 + 8(n - 1) = - 3 + 8n - 8 = 8n - 11 ← note this is the second option, that is

f(n) = - 3 + 8(n - 1)

gregori [183]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the total cost of booking either Uber or Lyft for x miles.

Let m represent the number of miles ridden with either Uber or Lyft.

Uber charges $0.80 per mile and a booking fee of $2.30. This means that the total cost of riding with Uber for m miles would be

c = 2.30 + 0.8m - - - - - - - - - -1

Lyft charges $1.07 per mile with no booking fee. This means that the total cost of riding with Lyft for m miles would be

c = 1.07m - - - - - - - - - -2

Equation 1 and equation 2 are the system of equations that bests models this situation
