Simply distribute the -3 across the b and -7.
-3(b - 7) = (-3 * b) + (-3 * -7) = -3b + 21
Hope this was helpful, if it wasn't just drop me a DM explaining what didn't make sense.
Your answer is C. 500,000
If you add that together you get 28
Answer:
Yes. Juan will break even because 16 and -16 are a zero pair. -16 is the additive inverse of 16. So the sum will be 0.
Sequence will look like this:
Term 1: 20 --------- 20 + 5(0)
Term 2: 25 --------- 20 + 5(1)
Term 3: 30 --------- 20 + 5(2)
Term 4: 35 --------- 25 + 5(3)
ETC.
It cab noted that the numbers in the bracket (that is, 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, etc) = n-1
Then, the explicit formula will be;
an = 20 + 5(n-1).
The correct answer is D.
