Me right away with both problems.

3) aₓ = 3x + 2

Plug in numbers for x (for example, 1,2,3,4).

a₁ = 3(1) + 2; a₁ = 3 + 2; a₁ = 5

a₂ = 3(2) + 2; a₂ = 6 + 2; a₂ = 8

a₃ = 3(3) + 2; a₃ = 9 + 2; a₃ = 11

a₄ = 3(4) + 2; a₄ = 12 + 2; a₄ = 14

5, 8, 11, 14, or (C) is your answer

4) 23, 17, 11, 5

Plug in the following numbers to the equations until they match.

C) tₐ = 29 - 6n

when n = 1:

tₐ = 29 - 6(1) ; tₐ = 29 - 6 ; tₐ = 23

tₐ = 29 - 6(2) ; tₐ = 29 - 12 ; tₐ = 17

etc.

hope this helps

Problem 3.

Use the positive integers for n in increasing order starting with 1. First use n = 1, then n = 2, then n = 3, etc. Replace n with an integer, and solve for an.

5, 8, 11, 14

Problem 4.

The first number in the sequence is 23. Each term is then 6 less than the previous term.

Start with 29 - 6, then 29 - 12, 29 - 18.

30 units^2

step-by-step explanation:

area is l × w

the length is 3

and the width is 10

3 × 10= 30 units squared
