<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
<h3>
<u>Solution:</u></h3>
We are given that the arithmetic progression is defined by :
➝ 2n + 1
<em>Therefore, </em>
- <u>For </u><u>first </u><u>term</u>
➙ n = 1
➝ 2 × 1 + 1
➝ 2 + 1
➝ 3
- <u>For </u><u>second </u><u>term</u>
➙ n = 2
➝ 2 × 2 + 1
➝ 4 + 1
➝ 5
- <u>Common </u><u>difference</u>
➙ 2nd term - 1st term
➝ 5 - 3
➝ 2

- The difference between the successive term and the preceding term is the difference of an arithmetic progression. It is always same for the same arithmetic progression.

$1.2 is the sales tax I think. I did 40 x .03
The formula for t would be x/7.
In order to find this, we simply follow the order of operations to solve for t.
7t = x ----> Divide both sides by 7
t = x/7
