$-15;-6;\ 3;\ 12;...\\\\a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\\\a_1=-15;\ a_2=-6\\\\d=a_2-a_1\to d=-6-(-15)=-6+15=9\\\\a_n=-15+(n-1)\cdot9=\boxed{-15+9(n-1)}$

In which order should you look for assistance with college expenses?

lyudmila [28]

The correct answer should be Choice B.

Scholarships and merit aid are the best way to earn money to go to college. They don't have to be paid back. When it comes to loans, you should select federal before non-governmental because the interest rates are usually lower on federal loans.
