A <u>formula</u> is a mathematical statement that calculates a value and each formula must always begin with an equal sign. A formula is used to express the mathematical relationship, information and rules symbolically and concisely. It basically summarizes the solution to a problem.
Answer: B, C, E
-------
The difference between consecutive terms (numbers that come after each other) in arithmetic sequences is the same. That means you add the same number every time to get the next number. To figure out which choices are arithmetic sequences, just see if the differences are the same.
Choice A) 1, -2, 3, -4, 5, ...
-2 - 1 = -3
3 - (-2) = 5
The difference is not constant, so it is not an arithmetic sequence.
Choice B) 12,345, 12,346, 12,347, 12,348, 12,349, ...
12,346 - 12,345 = 1
12,347 - 12,346 = 1
The difference is constant, so it is an arithmetic sequence.
Choice C) <span>154, 171, 188, 205, 222, ...
171 - 154 = 17
188 - 171 = 17
The difference is constant, so it is an arithmetic sequence.
Choice D) </span><span>1, 8, 16, 24, 32, ...
8 - 1 = 7
16 - 8 = 8
</span>The difference is not constant, so it is not an arithmetic sequence.
Choice E) <span>-3, -10, -17, -24, -31, ...
-10 - (-3) = -7
-17 - (-10) = -7
</span>The difference is constant, so it is an arithmetic sequence.
Answer: A: 1524 miles B: Average is 508 mph
Step-by-step explanation: Add the miles on the picture to get the total amount of miles traveled (1524) and then divide by 3 hours to get 508 mph.

2 bags
7 apples
A) Instead of a lets say:
a = 1, 2 , 3
If a =1 then, (you already know there are 2 bags) you have 1 apple in each bag, making total of 2 apples
If a =2 then you are having 2 apples in each bag making total of 4 apples
If a =3, 3 apples in each bag, making total of 6 apples
Conclusion:
2 * 1 = 2
2 * 2 = 4
2 * 3 = 6
See the difference & pattern here
Now lets do with a
2 * a = 2a
B) If a = 6
then, 2*6 = 12
lets continue from a =3
2*4=8
2*5=10
2*6=12
See the pattern again
Tip: Drawing making problem understand better.
