SOLUTION
From the sequence give
–3, 1, 5, 9, . . .
The first term, a = -3
The common difference, d = 4 (gotten by adding 4 to the next term).
The number of terms required n = 6.
Formula for sum of an arithmetic sequence is given by
Substituting these values into the equation above we have
Hence, the answer is 42, option B
Increase.
1/4 can be translated to 25%
1/2 can be translated to 50%
25% to 50% is an increase.
I would say D. 10/16, 5/8
Hope This helps :)
For this case, the first thing to do is to graph the following ordered pairs:
(-6, -1)
(-3, 2)
(-1,4)
(2,7)
We observe that the graph is a linear function with the following equation:
y = x + 5
Note: see attached image.
Answer:
The function that best represents the ordered pairs is:
y = x + 5
