Hello :
the nth term ( general term of an arithmetic sequence is :
An =A1+(n-1)d ....a common difference is : d , A1 : the first terme
A1 = 5 and : d = 1 - 5 = - 4 n = 21
A21 = 5 + (21 -1)(-4)
A21 = 5 - 80 = -75

the first simple interest will be $1.73 more than the second one.
<h3>
Which is the difference between the two interests?</h3>
The loan is of $575, and there are two options:
7 years at 4.5% or 8 years at 3.9%
Remember that the simple interest formula is:
SI = (P*R*T)/100
Where:
P = principal value.
R = rate (this is the percentage per year)
T = time, in years.
Then for the first option. the interest will be:
SI = ($575*4.5*7)/100 = $181.13
For the second option we will have the interest:
SI' =( $575*3.9*8)/100 = $179.4
The difference is:
$181.13 - $179.4 = $1.73
This means that the first simple interest will be $1.73 more than the second one.

35 divided by 5 = 7
7 x 2 = 14
So c) 14
And I have no idea about the second one sorry :/
