Gia went to the movies with her 7-year old daughter and her 70-year-old mother. movie tickets are half-priced for children under 12 years old, and there is a 25% discount for senior citizens. if gia's $8.00 ticket was the regular retail price, what percent of the full retail price did gia pay for the three tickets?

a.60% b.66.6% c.70% d.75%

D. 75%

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

, and for

from the sentence, "tomorrow morning, akiko will arrive an hour late" depicts a third person perspective because it doesn't use any pronoun to replace akiko, the subject of the sentence, and it is in singular form since akiko is only one person.
