B. The amount of distance it traveled for 5 gallons is 77.5 mi as 40+20+10+5+2.5 so divide that by 5 and you get 15.5

Se tiene la sucesión 3, 8, 13, 18, 23 … ¿Cuáles son los siguientes dos términos y cuál es la regla general?
V125BC [204]

Respuesta:

28; 33

A (n) = 5n - 2

Explicación paso a paso:

A partir de los datos dados, 3, 8, 13, 18, 23…, podemos ver que cada valor sucesivo de la serie aumenta en 5;

Por lo tanto, los siguientes dos términos de la serie deberían ser:

23 + 5 = 28

28 + 5 = 33

La serie es una progresión aritmética:

Recuerde la fórmula general:

A (norte) = a + (norte - 1) d

Donde, a = Primer término = 3; d = diferencia común = 5

n = enésimo término

A (n) = 3 + (n-1) 5

A (n) = 3 + 5n - 5

A (n) = 5n - 2
