Answer:

7n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the general formula for figuring out the formula of a sequence is a + (n - 1)d, where a = the first term and d = the common difference

The question tells u that the first term is 8 and the common difference is 7

Knowing this, you can substitute those values into the formula and simplify:

a + (n - 1)d

= 8 + (n - 1)*7

= 8 + (7n -7)

= 8 + 7n - 7

= 7n - 7 + 8

= 7n + 1

and there's your explicit formula! hope this helped!

A triangular prism has three rectangular sides and two triangular faces. To find the area of the rectangular sides, use the formula A = lw, where A = area, l = length, and h = height. To find the area of the triangular faces, use the formula A = 1/2bh, where A = area, b = base, and h = height hope this helped somehow ;-; sry if not
