The sequence can be represented by
, where
is a whole number(
and
is an integer). By this, we should be able to plug in some whole number x and be able to get these values if they are in the sequence. To test this, let's set these numbers equal to
and confirm that there is a whole number x which equals the values selected.



When trying 160 with our equation, we find that x doesn't equal a whole number, thus our answer is C, or 160. To confirm our answer, we can test 170 and 210 and confirm that they both give us a value for x which is a whole number.


I'm not 100% sure but I think this is how you solve it:
1. 800,000 x 0.06 = 48,000
2. 48,000 x 17 = 816,000
3. 800,000 + 816,000 = 1,616,000
The painting is worth $1,616,000 in 2017.
