9.3/5 means that each pound is $1.86.

3/4 ($1.86) =$1.395 or $1.40 for 3/4 pound of peanuts. Hope that helps. :)

Answer:

$a_1=-10$

$d=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In an Arithmetic Sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant, and this constant is called the common difference (d)

In this problem we have the ordered pairs

$(1,-10),(2,-7),(3,-4),(4,-1),(5,2),(6,5)$

Let

$a_1=-10\\a_2=-7\\a_3=-4\\a_4=-1\\a_5=2\\a_6=5$

Find the difference between one term and the next

$a_2-a_1=-7-(-10)=3$

$a_3-a_2=-4-(-7)=3$

$a_4-a_3=-1-(-4)=3$

$a_5-a_4=2-(-1)=3$

$a_6-a_5=5-2=3$

The difference between one term and the next is a constant

This constant is the common difference

The sequence graphed is an Arithmetic Sequence

therefore

The first term is $a_1=-10$

The common difference is equal to $d=3$
