N = 3 ( the next number is 3 plus the previous number
sequence formula = an = 3(n-1) +2
so for term the term that =59
59 = 3(n-1) +2
distribute:
59 = 3n -3+2
59 = 3n -1
60 = 3n
n = 60/3
n = 20
59 is the 20th term
Answer:
The scale factor is -1/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sorry for my messy handwriting but this is the answer
Slope = (2 + 1) / (-5 - 10) = -3/15 = - 1/5
Equation
y - 2 = -1/5 (x + 5)
y - 2 = -1/5 x - 1
y = -1/5 x + 1
Answer
y = -1/5 x + 1
