I believe the answers are:
-3/2
-7/2
The common difference is 19-7 = 31-19 = 12, so this is an arithmetic sequence. The initial term (when n=1) is 7.
The explicit formula for the terms of an arithmetic sequence is
an = a1 + d(n-1)
where "a1" is the first term and "d" is the common difference. The formula that matches a1=7 and d=12 is
B. a(n) = 7+(n-1)·12
If you factor the denominator of the left multiplicand...
[(a-4)(a+3)]/[a(a-4)] you can see that the (a-4)s cancel out leaving:
(a+3)/a
now you have
(a+3)/a * 2a^3/((a+3)(a-1)) so the (a+3)s cancel out leaving:
1/a * 2a^3/(a-1) which is:
2a^3/(a(a-1)) so now a^1 cancel leaving
2a^2/(a-1)
It will cost more. 2*6=$12.00. Also, here money in the bank will go down
