He gets 8 dollars every hour. :)
The first term of this series (a+1) is 1 and the common ratio (r) is -3.
Thus, the explicit formula is a_n = 1*(-3)^(n-1).
Must check this! suppose we try to calculate the 3rd term. Then n = 3.
a_3 = 1*(-3)^(3-1) = (-3)^2 = 9. This is correct.

Complete question:
Joel has a goal to practice his clarinet for 4 1/2 per week. The list below shows the number of hours Joel has a practiced so far for the week. Monday 1 1/2 hours Wednesday 1 1/4 hours Thursday 1 hour How many more hours does he need to practice this week to meet his goal
Answer: 3/4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Target hours = 4 1/2 hours = 9/2 hours
Number of hours so far :
(1 1/2 + 1 1/4 + 1) = (3/2 + 5/4 + 1) hours
Total so far :
L. C. M of denominator = 4
(6 + 5 + 4) /4 = 15/4
Number of hours left to meet his target equals :
Target hours - total so far
( 9/2 - 15/4)
L. C. M of denominator = 4
(18 - 15) / 4 = 3/4 hours
.
