Explicit formulas for arithmetic sequences are derived from terms in arithmetic sequences. It helps to find each term in arithmetic progression easily. The arithmetic progression is a1, a2, a3, ..., an. where the first term is denoted as 'a', we have a = a1, and the tolerance is denoted as 'd'. The tolerance formula is d = a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = an - an - 1. The nth term of the arithmetic progression represents the explicit formula for the arithmetic progression.
Explicit formula: an= a + (n − 1) d
Explicit formula: Sn = n/2 [2a+(n-1) d]
Where,
nth term in the arithmetic sequence
a = first term in the arithmetic sequence
d = difference (each term and its term difference) previous term, i.e., d = an-an-1

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Ben has a cell phone plan that provides 200 free minutes each month for a flat rate of $39.
We are also told that For any minutes over 200, Ben is charged $0.35 per minute.
let x be the minutes used each month
So, if 
So, coat will be $39
If 
So, Ben is charged $0.35 per minute
So, when
So, charge = 
So, the piecewise functions accurately represents charges based on Ben's cell phone :
Edit: Nevermind I messed up
2(2x-1) + 2(3x)=4x-2+6x = 10x - 2 & not <span>=10x-1</span>
