7, 13, 19 and 25 have a common difference: 6.
6 added to 7 gives us 13; 6 added to 13 gives us 19, and so on.
Explicit formula: a(n) = 7 + 6(n-1), where 7 is the first term and n is the counter (1, 2, 3, ...).
The first term is 7 (given). This corresponds to n=1.
The second term is a(2) = 7 + 6(2-1), or 7 + 6, or 13. This corresponds to n = 2.
and so on.

Answer:
5) 729, an=3^n, a[1]=3; a[n]=3·a[n-1]
6) 1792, an=7(4^(n-1)), a[1]=7; a[n]=4·a[n-1]
Step-by-step explanation:
The next term of a geometric sequence is the last term multiplied by the common ratio. (This is the basis of the recursive formula.)
The Explicit Rule is ...

for first term a₁ and common ratio r.
The Recursive Rule is ...
a[1] = a₁
a[n] = r·a[n-1]
__
5. First term is a₁ = 3; common ratio is r = 9/3 = 3.
Next term: 243×3 = 729
Explicit rule: an = 3·3^(n-1) = 3^n
Recursive rule: a[1] = 3; a[n] = 3·a[n-1]
__
6. First term is a₁ = 7; common ratio is r = 28/7 = 4.
Next term: 448×4 = 1792
Explicit rule: an = 7·4^(n-1)
Recursive rule: a[1] = 7; a[n] = 4·a[n-1]
John brought 20 water melons each water melon cost him 2 dollars. He gave his friend Bob 3/4 of the watermelons. In return bob gave him double the amount of water melons back. How many watermelons does John have now? How much money did he spend on each water melon?
