Let n represent the number. You require
   7n - 2n = 55
   5n = 55 . . . . . . collect terms
   n = 11 . . . . . . . divide by 5

The number is 11.

What is the explicit rule for the sequence?<br><br><br><br> 12,6,0,−6, …
wolverine [178]
Hello!

First you find the common difference in the sequence

6 - 12 = -6
0 - 6 = -6

The common difference is -6

We can now make the equation

-6(n - 1) + 12

we got the 12 because it is the first number in the sequence

Simplify

-6n + 6 + 12

Simplify

18 - 6n

The answer is B) an = 18 - 6n

Hope this helps!

The third term in an arithmetic sequence is 14 and the fifth term is 20. If the first term is a1, which is an equation for the n
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The equation for nth term is 3n + 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a1 be a,

a3 = a + (n - 1)d

or, 14 = a + (3 - 1)d

so, 14 = a + 2d

Now,

a5 = a + (n - 1)d

or, 20 = a + (5 - 1)d

or, 20 = a + 4d

now,

a + 4d = 20

a + 2d = 14

now,

a + 4d - ( a + 2d) = 20 - 14

or, a + 4d - a - 2d = 6

or, 2d = 6

so, d = 3

Now,

a + 2d = 14

or, a + 2(3) = 14

or, a = 14 - 6

so, a = 8

Now,

an = a + (n - 1)d

or, an = 8 + (n - 1)3

or, an = 8 + 3n - 3

so, an = 3n + 5
