Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Mixed Fractions</u>
Mixed fractions are made of an integer part followed by a proper fraction.
Some examples of mixed fractions are:
3 1/2, -4 5/8, 2 2/3
Between two consecutive integers a and a+1, there are infinitely many fractions. The centered number is a 1/2. Any number with its improper fraction part less than 1/2 is closer to a than to a+1.
In our problem, Jayne bought between 2 and 3 pounds of granola. We need to provide a mixed number that is closer to 2 pounds than to 3 pounds.
We can select any number with integer part 2 and a proper fraction less than 1/2.
Examples could be :
2 1/3, 2 1/4, 2 3/7
All of them are less than 2.5

Answer:
- recursive: a[1] = 7440; a[n+1] = a[n] -120
- explicit: a[n] = 7440 -120(n -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence of amounts in Jackson's account will be ...
7440, 7320, 7200, ...
with a first value (a1) of 7440 and a common difference (d) of -120.
The recursive formula for an arithmetic sequence is ...
a[1] = a1
a[n+1] = a[n] +d
For our sequence, the recursive formula is ...
a[1] = 7440
a[n+1] = a[n] -120
__
The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is ...
an = a1 +d(n -1)
For our sequence, the explicit formula is ...
a[n] = 7440 -120(n -1)
