If the values increase then the mean will as well, but if only the observations increase, the mean will decrease.
The sequence is, in fact, quadratic. It is described by the equation
.. a[n] = (n*(n -1))/2 +2
First differences are increasing, so the sequence will not be arithmetic. An arithmetic sequence has constant first differences.
Second differences are constant, so the sequence will not be geometric. A geometric sequence will have first-, second-, third-differences, and those to any level, that have the same constant ratio as the terms of the original sequence.
Answer:
1.80m + 3 ≤ 25
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a flat rate of $3, which means that's the base value. Now, we see that Jennifer has to pay $1.80 per mile, which means that when she has ridden m miles, she has to pay 1.80m. However, remember to add 3 to this:
1.80m + 3
Jennifer only has $25 to spend, so she can't spend any more than 25. This means that the money she can spend must be less than or equal to $25:
1.80m + 3 ≤ 25
Hope this helps!
