an\ arithmetic\ sequence:\\\\ d\ \ \rightarrow\ \ the\ difference\\\\f(n)=f(1)+(n-1)\cdot d\\\\f(n+1)=f(1)+n\cdot d\\\\f(n+1)-f(n)=f(1)+n\cdot d-[f(1)+n\cdot d- d]=\\\\=f(1)+nd-f(1) -nd+d=d\\\\\Rightarrow\ \ \ f(n+1)=f(n)+d

f(1)=3\ \ \ and\ \ \ f(3)=6\\\\f(3)=f(1)+(3-1)\cdot d\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 6=3+2d\\\\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2d=3\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ d=1.5\\\\ f(n+1)=f(n)+d\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ f(n+1)=f(n)+1.5\\\\\\Ans.\ \ \ f(1)=3\ \ \ and\ \ \ f(n+1)=f(n)+1.5

. The temperature on Monday was −5∘C . By Tuesday the temperature rose to −2∘C. Find the change in temperature.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: 3^{\circ}C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The temperature on Monday was -5^{\circ}C

By Tuesday, it becomes -2^{\circ}C

Change in temperature is the difference between the two temperatures.

\Rightarrow \Delta T=-2-(-5)\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=-2+5\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=3^{\circ}C

Therefore, the change in temperature is 3^{\circ}C.
