Answer:

28, 24, 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

here d = - 4 and a₇ = 4, hence

a₁ + (6 × - 4) = 4

a₁ - 24 = 4 ( add 24 to both sides ), hence

a₁ = 28

a₂ = 28 - 4 = 24

a₃ = 24 - 4 = 20

Ann wants to choose from two telephone plans. Plan A involves a fixed charge of $10 per month and call charges at $0.10 per minute. Plan B involves a fixed charge of $15 per month and call charges at $0.08 per minute.

Plan A $10 + .10/minute

Plan B $15 + .08/minute

If 250 minutes are used:

Plan A: $10+$25=$35
Plan B: $15+$20=$35

If 400 minutes are used:

Plan A: $10+$40=$50
Plan B: $15+$32=$47

B is the correct answer. How to test it:

Plan A: $10+(.10*249 minutes)
$10+$24.9=$34.9

Plan B: $15+(.08*249 minutes)
$15+$19.92=$34.92

Plan A < Plan B if less than 250 minutes are used.
