Answer 3

Notice that it's an arithmetic sequence with equal intervals of 7.

Answer 4

wait what

Answer 5

oo so it goes by 7 ok

Answer 6

You want the 500th term. So the increase from n=1 will be
7*499+24 is your answer

Answer 7

somits d

Answer 8

so its d

Answer 9

3517

Answer 10

Yup

Answer 11

thx your really god at this stuff

Answer 12

good

Answer 13

No prob

Answer 14

i got one more

Answer 15

got more questions?

Answer 16

yea its kinda the same

Answer 17

go ahed

Answer 18

The explicit formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is an = a1 + (n - 1) • d. What is the simple formula corresponding to the explicit formula if the first term of the sequence is -10 and the difference between terms in the sequence is 3?


A. 3n + 10
B. 3n - 7
C. 3n - 10
D. 3n - 13
E. 3n + 13

Answer 19

note that difference between terms is always 3. And this quesiton is asking you to pick the equation when first term=-10

Answer 20

it think its c

Answer 21

All the other options are there to confuse the wits out of you:)

Answer 22

nice

Answer 23

omg ok this one is hard

Answer 24

First term is -10. So 3n+13

Answer 25

3n-13

Answer 26

n=1
3-13=10 right?

Answer 27

yea

Answer 28

do you know this one

Answer 29

D

Answer 30

Don't snitch on the losers

Answer 31

ik that but i have a different problem

Answer 32

Tile setters use small tiles in the shape of hexagons to create all sorts of decorative patterns. In the pattern below, a central red tile is surrounded by bigger and bigger six-sided rings of colored tiles. Only three colored rings are shown, but larger rings of white tiles surround the ones you see here.

Don't count the red tile. The smallest ring has 6 blue tiles in it. The next ring has 12 yellow tiles. Count the number of green tiles in the third ring. Based on the pattern established by the first three rings, how many tiles are there in the 25th ring of white tiles, counting outward from the central red tile?

A. 144
B. 150
C. 156
D. 125

Answer 33

i hate this problem

Answer 34

Oh I see

Answer 35

d=+1

Answer 36

so the 25th ring is144

Answer 37

I took d as the additional tile outside of the equation.

Answer 38

so iwas right :D

Answer 39

ill brb ima go eat

Answer 40

6,12,18,24,30,36,42,48,54,60,66,72,78,84,90,96,102,108,114,,120,126,132,138,144,150,156,162,168,174...

Answer 41

so 144

Answer 42

it says don't count on the red tile so that would be 150

Answer 43

100% positive it's B

Answer 44

You can count me on this

Answer 45

ok
