Question

~*~*~*~HELP~*~*~*~

A tuition scale for a state university shows an increase of $1,500 each year.

Part 1: If the initial cost was $23,000, what will the cost of tuition be in twenty five years?

Part 2: In complete sentences, explain how an arithmetic sequence was applied.

Answer 1

Part #1: It will be 23,000 + 1500 times 25
Part #2: Each year, the tuition will be higher by $1,500. So, the year-over-year difference is "fixed" at $1,500. Therefore, tuition for various years from now forms an Arithmetic sequence.
