Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first differences of the given terms are ...

8 -5 = 3

11 -8 = 3

These are the same value, so we see this sequence is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 3. The first term is 5.

The explicit formula for the n-th term is ...

an = a1 +d(n -1)

We know a1=5, d=3, and we want to find the value for n=22. Hence ...

a22 = 5 +3(22 -1) = 5 +63 = 68

The 22nd term is 68.

The original price of a carousel horse is $998.97. Which coupon is a better deal 70% off or $650.00 off

lana [24]

Answer:

70% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate both these deals, then figure out which costs less.

1. 70% off

(70% = .70)
70% of 998.97 = .70 * 998.97 = $699.279 is the discount
Subtract this from 998.97: 998.97 - 699.279 = <u>$299.691</u>

2. $650 off

Subtract 650 from 998.97: 998.97 - 650 = <u>$348.97</u>

This makes sense, because 650 is 65% of the original cost, which is less than 70%!
