If the recursive formula is a(n)=a(n-1)+3 and a1=2 then the explicit formula is:
a(n)=2+3(n-1) which simplifies to
a(n)=2+3n-3
a(n)=3n-1 so the first three terms are a(1), a(2), and a(3) which are:
2, 5, and 8
Let x be the larger number and y be the smaller number.
Using the given info, we get
x = 4y - 2
We also know that
x + y = 18
Substitute x = 4y -2 into x + y = 18
(4y -2) +y = 18
5y - 2 = 18
5y = 20
y = 4
Enter this value into x = 4y - 2
x = 4(4) - 2
x = 14
The larger number is 14 and the smaller one is 4.
Let's calculate the growth rate from 1992 to 2002 (Since it's assumed to be a LINEAR function, instead of an exponential one)
Growth rate = (141 - 105 )/ (105) = 12/35
Growth Rate = Slope, then y = ax becomes y = (12/35).x OR y =0.342x
Because people in the market can use it against you / scam you.
If you know someone doesn't have any prior knowledge of what you're selling you can easily say," this helped my grandma cure her cancer" etc. You could easily be used if you're not aware.

Study tips: I would recommend Quizlet! They have a section that generates study games. It's a lot more fun than normal studying. It's also a good idea to make a goal for yourself. Try to make a challenge of achieving a certain score! By the time you accomplish said score, you'll find that you've learned a lot. Another tip is to make sure you take breaks. If you work too long without giving yourself a break, it will become harder to focus and your brain will become tired. Just don't get too distracted! set yourself an alarm during break times to help you stay on task. If you become frustrated with a certain subject or task, take a break from that task. Use this time as an opportunity to work on another subject. You can begin working on the first subject again once you feel refreshed. A lot of this may sound redundant, but hopefully it will help at least a little bit. Good luck!
