The factory makes 27 dresses.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- It produces three dresses for every five shirts.
- Let x be the sets of five shirts produced.
- Therefore, x sets of three dresses are produced along with five shirts.
Total garments = number of shirts + number of dresses
⇒ 72 = 5x + 3x
⇒ 72 = 8x
⇒ x = 9
The number of dresses is 3x = 3(9) = 27 dresses.

<h3>See explanations below</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Given the recursive function An=an-1 + 3 when a1 = 5, we are to find the first four terms;
First term a1 = 5
a2 = a1 +3
a2 = 5 + 3
a2 = 8
a3 = a2 + 3
a3 = 8+3
a3 = 11
a4 = a3 + 3
a4 = 11 + 3
a4 = 14
<em>The first four terms are 5, 8, 11 and 14</em>
<em></em>
<em>2) </em>For the recursive function An=an-1 + 2/3 when a1 = 1
a2 = a1 + 2/3
a2 = 1 + 2/3
a2 = 5/3
a3 = a2 + 2/3
a3 = 5/3 + 2/3
a3 = 7/3
a4 = a3 + 2/3
a4 = 7/3 + 2/3
a4 = 9/3
a4 = 3
<em>Hence the first four terms of the sequence are 2/3, 5/3, 7/3, 3</em>
<em></em>
3) For the recursive function An=an-1 + 12 when a1=30
a2 = a1 + 12
a2 = 30 + 12
a2 = 42
a3 = a2 +12
a3 = 42 + 12
a3 = 54
a4 = a3 + 12
a4 = 54+12
a4 = 66
<em>Hence the first four terms of the sequence are 30, 42, 54, 66</em>
The nth equation is 3780 - 39n
