Notice that the pattern is "previous term plus 2".  This is an arithmetic sequence where the difference (d) equals +2

a_{n} = a₁ + d(n - 1)   ; where a₁ is the first term, d is the difference, and n is the term.

f(n) = 1 + 2(n - 1)

f(n) = 1 + 2n - 2

f(n) = 2n - 1

********************************

f(10) = 2(10) - 1

f(10) = 20 - 1

f(10) = 19

The club supplies 40 new balls for each player which cost $1 each. Each player pays $300 for the lessons. The club must pay each
den301095 [7]

Answer:

4 players and 1 instructor

Step-by-step explanation:

If all 4 players pay $300 each, that equals $1,200. The instructor will get $1,000 of it. That means there is $200 left. They need 40 balls per player. Each ball is $1, so that's $40 per player. 40 x 4= 160    200-160 = 40 The club will have $40 left.
