pam goes skydiving and falls at a constant rate toward the ground. the equation y = -32x + 13,500 represents the situation where y is the height of pam in feet above the ground and x is the seconds since she jumped.

which statement describes the situation?

from a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, she is ascending at 32 feet per second.

from a starting position of 32 feet above the ground, she is descending at 13,500 feet per second.

from a starting position of 32 feet above the ground, she is ascending at 13,500 feet per second.

from a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, she is descending at 32 feet per second.

From a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, she is descending at 32 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in slope intercept form.

The slope (m) is -32. This can be used as a unit rate: -32 ft per second.

The y-intercept (b) is 13,500. It would make most sense if she started at 13,500 ft in height.

From a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, Pam is descending at 32 feet per second.

for

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
