The common difference, d, can be determined by subtracting the two consecutive values:
1 - 5 = -4
-3 - 1 = -4
-7 - -3 = -4
Then, using the equation:
an = a1+ d(n-1)
a_21 = 5 + (-4)(21 - 1)
a_21 = -75
The answer is letter D. I hope I was able to help you. Have a good day!
Answer:
4.75
Step-by-step explanation:
u×t=5 +1/2×-2×1/2²
it's 9 because 58-49=9
So the answer is 9

The rigth equation to anticipate the profit after t years is p(t) = 10,000 (1.075)^t
So, given that both store A and store B follow the same equations but t is different for them, you can right:
Store A: pA (t) 10,000 (1.075)^t
Store B: pB(t'): 10,000 (1.075)^t'
=> pA(t) / pB(t') = 1.075^t / 1.075^t'
=> pA(t) / pB(t') = 1.075 ^ (t - t')
And t - t' = 0.5 years
=> pA(t) / pB(t') = 1.075 ^ (0.5) = 1.0368
or pB(t') / pA(t) = 1.075^(-0.5) = 0.964
=> pB(t') ≈ 0.96 * pA(t)
Which means that the profit of the store B is about 96% the profit of store A at any time after both stores have opened.
