Question

A tuition scale for a state university shows an increase of $1,500 each year. If the initial cost was $23,000. What will the cost of tuition be in twenty five years? In complete sentences, explain how an arithmetic sequence was applied?

Answer 1

Total=23,000+1500x
x is number of years so
Total=23,000+1500(25)
Total=60,500

Answer 2

Arithmetic sequence was applied because between every year there is a $1500 difference
