\boxed{a_{n}=-3+8(n-1)}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The explicit formula for the general nth term of the arithmetic sequence is given by:

a_{n}=a_{1}+d(n-1) \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ a_{n}:nth \ term \\ \\ n:Number \ of \ terms \\ \\ a_{1}:First \ term \\ \\ d:common \ difference

Here we know that:

a_{1}=-3 \\ \\ a_{10}=69

So, our goal is to find the common difference substituting into the formula:

a_{10}=a_{1}+d(10-1) \\ \\ 69=-3+d(9) \\ \\ Solving \ for \ d: \\ \\ 9d=69+3 \\ \\ 9d=72 \\ \\ d=8

Finally, we can write the explicit formula as:

\boxed{a_{n}=-3+8(n-1)}

The answer is D) $0.15

James spent: $2.65
On 5 box of markers and 1 erase
So I divided 2.65 by 5 and got .15
$2.65 ÷ 5 = 0.15
So he spent $2.50 on markers an $0.15
Erasers

Based of James, Becky spent a dollar on. 2 boxes of markers
And $0.45 on 3 erasers
