The answer is: [C]: " (x - 4) " .

" (x+9)(x-4) = x² - 4x + 9x - 36 = x² + 5x - 36 " .

I suppose the third term should say -10/3, not -103.
Notice that
-2 = -6/3
-4 = -12/3
so that, starting with the first term <em>a</em>(1) = -6/3, the every following term is obtained by subtracting 2/3.
-2 - 2/3 = -6/3 - 2/3 = -8/3
-8/3 - 2/3 = -10/3
-10/3 - 2/3 = -12/3 = -4
and so on.
So the recursive rule is
<em>a</em>(1) = -2,
<em>a</em>(<em>n</em> + 1) = <em>a</em>(<em>n</em>) - 2/3, for <em>n</em> ≥ 1
or C.
Im positive its false because they dont add up
Monthly because it will be compounded and the interest is 14,200
