Question

Graph the data below and then answer the questions that follow. year 1=$20,000, year 2=$21,750, year 3=$23,500, year 4=$25,250, year 5=$27,000. is this an arithmetic sequence? How do you know?

Answer 1

Answer:

Since the difference between the value for each year is constant, this is an arithmetic sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Year 2 - Year 1 = 21,750 - 20,000 = 1,750

Year 3 - Year 2 = 23,500 - 21,750 = 1,750

Year 4 - Year 3 = Year 5 - Year 4 = 1,750
