Answer:

<h2>            aₙ = 7n - 10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term:  a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

So:

    a₄ = a₁ + 3d

18 =  a₁ + 3d   ⇒   3d =  18 - a₁

    a₇ = a₁ + 6d

39 = a₁ + 6d

39 = a₁ + 2(18 - a₁)

39 = a₁ + 36 - 2a₁

39 = 36 - a₁

a₁ = -3

3d = 18 - (-3)

3d = 21

d = 7

So the nth term:

                            a_n = -3 + 7(n-1)\\\\a_n=-3 +7n - 7\\\\a_n = 7n - 10

Kiera has $20 in a savings account. The interest rate is 5%
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 20 × 0.05 × 2 = 2

I = $ 2.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 20.00

at a rate of 5% per year

for 2 years is $ 2.00.
