Answer: a_1=50,d=25 and $475 deposited into the account on her birthdays by her 18th birthday.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, on Gabriela’s first birthday, her parents gave her a $50 savings account.

Initial term : a_1=50

On every birthday after that her parents added to the account, increasing the amount they deposited by $25 each year.

Common difference : d=25

It forms an AP: 50,75,100,...

nth term of an AP is

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Substitute a_1=50 and d=25 in the above formula.

a_n=50+(n-1)25

It represents the amount deposited into the account after n birthdays.

We need to find the amount by her 18th birthday.

Put n=18 in the above equation.

a_{18}=50+(18-1)25

a_{18}=50+(17)25

a_{18}=50+425

a_{18}=475

Therefore, $475 deposited into the account on her birthdays by her 18th birthday.

Can anyone explain how to solve this?
eduard
I’m not 100 percent sure someone can comment on this and confirm but when it’s written like a fraction it means division. If they gave you the meaning of each variable (the letters) multiply each variable by each coefficient (the number next to the variable). Multiply all of those. Then divide it by the product of 4 and the variable

Hope this helped!
