12. Write the first five terms of two different sequences that have 10 as the second term. Describe the pattern in each of your sequences.

a)  The arithmetic sequence with common difference 2 that has 8 as the first term.

b) The arithmetic sequence of common difference -5 and first term 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use for example the arithmetic sequence with common difference 2 that has 8 as the first term. Then the first two terms of this sequence are:

8, and (8+2) = 10 Therefore the second term is 10.

Another arithmetic sequence of common difference -5 and first term 15. The firs two terms of this sequence are:

15, and  (15 - 5)  = 10. Therefore again a 10 as second term.

$450.00 for 6 weeks

or

$300

step-by-step explanation:

$200.00 for first week $50.00 x5 equals $250 plus $200 equals $450.00 for six weeks.

$200 for first week

$200 x 0.10 = $20

$20 x 5 = $100

$200 + $100 = $300
