The function y = 5x has a rate of change that is in between the equation y = 4x and y = 6x.
In an equation, the rate of change is also called the slope. It is the amount that a number is increasing by. We put that value in front of the x in most equations.
In the equal that I gave, the 5 is in between the rates of 4 and 6.
164+56−(3+4+1)
=220−(3+4+1)
=220−(7+1)
=220−8
=212
The slope is 2 because slope formula
An = A1 + (N-1)d
A1 is the first term (in this case 2)
d is the common difference (what is the difference between all consecutive even numbers? 2)
N is the number of terms to find (in this case 29)
An = 2 + (29-1)2 = 58
I would say none of the above, unless you typed it wrong. The sum is the product of the number of terms minus one and two, plus two more. So it's almost answer B but not really. Good luck with this one.
