h(x)= -kx + 14
18 = -k*2 + 14 since x=2
18 = -2k +14
subtract 14 from each side
4 = -2k
divide by -2
-2 =k
Answer:
1109
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term is -27, and the common difference is 16.
The nth term is:
a = a₁ + d (n − 1)
a = -27 + 16 (n − 1)
a = -27 + 16n − 16
a = 16n − 43
The 72nd term is:
a = 16(72) − 43
a = 1109
