If each term of a sequence changes by a common difference, d, what would a general rule for this type of sequence

a.) a(n)=(d)n-1
b.) an=an-1+d
c.) an=an-1+an-2
d.) an=n-1+an-2+d

===================================================

Explanation:

The idea is that for any term, we add on the common difference d to get the next term. For example, the sequence {3, 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, ...} has us add on 4 each time so d = 4 in this case.

3+4 = 7

7+4 = 11

11+4 = 15

and so on. The nth term is represented by the notation while the term just before the nth term is written as

So adding d onto the term just before the nth term gets us the nth term which is how we end up with

This is the recursive form of the arithmetic sequence. The closed form is written as

answer: i guess 5 units?

step-by-step explanation:

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
