a) Explain why this sequence is an arithmetic sequence.
It is an arithmetic progression since it is a succession of numbers such that the difference of any pair of successive terms in the sequence is constant, in this case, it is 3.
b) Write out the sequence using blanks where appropriate.
Week|Distance
1 5
2 8
3 1 1
4 14
. .
. .
. .
c) Write the explicit formula for the sequence.
an = a1 + d*(n -1)
an = 5 + 3*(n - 1)
an = 5 + 3*n - 3
an = 3*n + 2
d) How far will the patient walk during the 12th week?
a12 = 3*12 + 2
a12 = 38
that is to say, in that week I walk 38 km
Hey there!
B. Fixed expenses.
Hope this helps!
He is currently 47.
56-9=47 and if you switched it around it would be 47+9=56 so the answer is 47.
