hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

discussion:

this ones a bit interesting. given a(n) = 5 - 3n consider this:

a(n-1) = 5 - 3(n-1)

          = (5 - 3n) + 3             => but a(n) = 5 - 3n, the first term

          = a(n)   + 3                 => subtract 3 from both sides

a(n-1) -3 = a(n)  

or

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

you,

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
