3n - 1
When n = 1,
3n - 1 = 3*1 - 1 = 3 -1 = 2
When n = 2,
3n - 1 = 3*2 - 1 = 6 -1 = 5
When n = 3,
3n - 1 = 3*3 - 1 = 9 -1 = 8
Hence, the first three terms are 2, 5 and 8.

Answer:
Function
Step-by-step explanation:
Because there is an output for every input listed of its opposite.
The answer is: " 2 :5 " ; or, write as: " 2/5 " .

The ratio of 'girls' to 'all students' is: "2: 5 " ; or, write as: " 2/5 ".

Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Given: The ratio of boys to girls is: " 3:2 " .
Problem: Find the ratio of "girls" to "all students:
________________________________________________________
Note: This ratio of "boys to girls", which is " 3 : 2 " ;
________________________________________________________
→ can be expressed as " 3x: 2x" ;
in which the total number of students is: " 3x + 2x " = 5x " .
→ The total number of students is represented as: " 5x " .
________________________________________________________
→ The ratio of "girls to boys" is: "2x : 3x" .
→ {that is; the "inverse" of the ratio of "boys to girls"} ;
→ {that is; the "inverse" of " 3x: 2x" } ; → which is: " 2x : 3x " .
________________________________________________________
The ratio of "girls" to "all students" is: "2x : 5x " ; or " 2x/5x " ;
→ Both "x" values cancel ; {since: " x/x = 1 "} ;
_________________________________________________________
→ and we have the answer: " 2 :5 " ; or, write as: " 2/5 " .
_________________________________________________________
The ratio of 'girls' to 'all students' is: " 2 :5 " ; or, write as: " 2/5 ".

1. the answer is 24. think of x as the original amount, and y as the new amount. y times 1.5 is x, and y+12 is x. reverse that to figure out y, which is what we need, and you have x/1.5 = y as well as x-12 = y. Use the equal values method and make an equation x/1.5=x-12. solve this equation to get x, which is 36. to figure out the new amount, y, you need to subtract 12, which would help you get 24 as your final answer.
2. once again, create an equation. let's call team 1 x and team 2 y. team one has 1/4th as many as team 2, so that would be x=1/4y. An easier way to write that is 4x=y. after 6 people quit team two, that would be y-6. after the transfer, that would be y-6-12, and x+12 for the teams. they are equal after these, so y-6-12=x+12. solve this equation to get y-18= x+12. if you recall earlier, y was 4 times x, so substitute that into y to get 4x-18=x+12. Solve the equation to get 10 people on team one originally. your final answer is 10 people.
