<u>Given</u>:
The given expression to find the nth term of the sequence is 
The first term of the sequence is 
We need to determine the third term of the sequence.
<u>Second term:</u>
The second term of the sequence can be determined by substituting n = 2 in the nth term of the sequence.
Thus, we have;




Thus, the second term of the sequence is -40.
<u>Third term:</u>
The third term of the sequence can be determined by substituting n = 3 in the nth term of the sequence.
Thus, we have;



Thus, the third term of the sequence is 120.
Since the problem is given all the total walking distance, the first thing we are going to do is find the total distance in the map:


Now that we have the distance in the map, we can establish a ratio between the walking distance and the distance in the map:

We can conclude that each inch the map represents 0.5 miles of walking distance.

because it is two
Answer:
a = 11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 + a =5/4
Subtract 1/3 from each side
1/3-1/3 + a =5/4-1/3
a = 5/4 -1/3
Get a common denominator of 12
a = 15/12 - 4/12
a = 11/12
