bAnswer: the answers is most likely a because of the nomination
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The equation for nth term is 3n + 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a1 be a,
a3 = a + (n - 1)d
or, 14 = a + (3 - 1)d
so, 14 = a + 2d
Now,
a5 = a + (n - 1)d
or, 20 = a + (5 - 1)d
or, 20 = a + 4d
now,
a + 4d = 20
a + 2d = 14
now,
a + 4d - ( a + 2d) = 20 - 14
or, a + 4d - a - 2d = 6
or, 2d = 6
so, d = 3
Now,
a + 2d = 14
or, a + 2(3) = 14
or, a = 14 - 6
so, a = 8
Now,
an = a + (n - 1)d
or, an = 8 + (n - 1)3
or, an = 8 + 3n - 3
so, an = 3n + 5
The expressions 100×10 and the more complicated
(100 - 4a)(10 + a)
are calculating annual (expected) revenue. In 100×10 the 100 is the number of decks and the 10 is the price per deck. In (100 - 4a)(10 + a) the 100-4a is the number of decks and the 10+a is the price per deck. So a must be the amount the price increases.
Answer: amount of price increase, last choice
An= a1+(r-1)d
