G=.74f, where f is the initial price and g is the sale price
<u>Answer:</u>
Beto will get to the school first.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given that Delia lives 3/4 mile from school and walks at a pace of
16 minutes per mile.
So Delia takes 
12 minutes to reach school.
While Beto lives 3 1/2 miles from school and bikes at a pace of 3 minutes per mile.
So Beto takes 
10.5 minutes to reach school.
Therefore, Beto will get to the school first.

Answer:
A) a_n = 5n + 2
B) a_n = (2^(n + 1)) - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The sequence is given as;
{7,12,17,22,27,...}
The differences are:
5,5,5,5.
This is an arithmetic sequence following the formula;
a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d
d is 5
Thus;
a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)5
Now, a_1 = 7. Thus;
a_n = 7 + 5n - 5
a_n = 5n + 2
B) The sequence is given as;
{ 3,7,15,31,63,...}
Now, let's write out the differences of this sequence:
Differences are:
4, 8, 16, 32
This shows that it is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 2.
In the given sequence, a_1 = 3 and a_2 = 7 and a_3 = 15
Thus, a_2 = 2a_1 + 1
Also, a_(2 + 1) = 2a_2 + 1
Combining both equations, we can deduce that: a_(n + 1) = 2a_n + 1
Thus; a_n can be expressed as:
a_n = (2^(n + 1)) - 1
The least possible sum is 6 and 4. If your having problems, write down the factors and choose the pair that adds up the smallest number :)
