To determine the nth term, we must create a function.
f(n) = 1st term + common difference (n - 1)
n = term you are looking for
1st term = 1st number in the sequence
common difference = the difference between two consecutive numbers in the sequence.
based on the above sequence, the 1st term is 2, its common difference is 3.
f(n) = 2 + 3(n-1)
Assuming we are looking for the 5th term
f(5) = 2 + 3(5-1)
= 2 + 3(4)
= 2 + 12
f(5) = 14 as you can see in the above sequence 14 is the 5th term.
For any other value of the nth term, simply substitute n by the number of the term and solve the equation.
Answer:
Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of airfare = $243
Amount spent per day = $72
Which expression can he use to help him find the cost of the trip?
Let
x = number of days spent in Alaska
Total cost of the trip = Cost of airfare + (Amount spent per day * number of days spent in Alaska)
= 243 + (72 * x)
= 243 + 72x
Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x
If he spent 4 days on the trip
Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x
= 243 + 72(4)
= 243 + 288
= $531
