Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Henry's grandfather gives him a box of 523 baseball cards . And starting the second month, each month Henry buys 24 baseball cards to add to this collection.

It means after second month Henry have

$523+24= 547$

After third month , Henry have

$547+24= 571$

After fourth month, Henry have

$571+24= 595$

So after n month, Henry have

$523+(n-1)24 = 523 + 24n -24= 24n +499$
