Part A : 30 - x - x - x - x - x - x = 0
^ since 30 divided by 5 is 6, that answer is the same as doing 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5
- pls comment & correct me if i did smth wrong :’)
Answer:
-6x
check the attachment i provided
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
y=8x
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph starts at the origin so there won't be a y intercept and the slope its 8 because every book costs 8 dollars. Therefore, the equation will be y=8x. Hope this helped
<span> To get an explicit formula, we need to find an expression which gives the n-th term without having to compute earlier terms in the sequence. Looking at the numbers, and from the recursive formula, we see that the sequence is built by subtracting n from the previous term. This is similar to the triangular number sequence 1,3,6,10,15,... which has the explicit formula a_n = n(n+1)/2. In our case we are subtracting n from the previous term, so we multiply by -1/2 instead of 1/2. However, we also need to add a constant term to reproduce the numbers of the sequence. We can write a_1 = -1(2)/2 + c = 8. Therefore, c = 9.
So the explict formula is:
a_n = -n(n+1)/2 + 9</span>
