Answer:
Use the formula for Arithmetic only if it is Arithmetic: a1+ (n-1)d
a represents the first number in the sequence, n represents the number, and d represent common difference
Use the formula for geometric sequence: an=a1r the exponent of r to n-1
an represents the nth term you are trying to find, a1 represents the first number, r represents the common ratio, and n-1 is just the nth term minus 1.
Once you figure out if the sequence is arithmetic or geometric you one of those formulas.
The answer is c=11 and t=11.75 :)
Here’s the explanation of why and why it is correct
The answer is attached. I hope this helps answer your question!
3x - 12 = -5 plus 12
3x-12 +12 = -5+12
3x = 7 devision by 3
3x/3 = 7/3
x= 2,3333333333 =~ 2,3
