Answer:
f(n) = 6n + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference in consecutive number of seats, that is
42 - 36 = 36 - 30 = 30 - 24 = 24 - 18 = 6
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 18 and d = 6 , then
f(n) = 18 + 6(n - 1) = 18 + 6n - 6 = 6n + 12
Unit rate would be 50 because 250÷5=50, so the answer would be (250×3)+50, witch is 800.
10/4 is not the simplified version that it can be. So 5/2 would be the same expression.
The initial value is 309.35
It means that in the year 2010 (starting year) the population was 309,350,000 people or written another way "309.35 million". The second way is more short so probably the more preferred method.
To find the value 309.35, simply look at the table under the value t = 0.
