...so that's the rule; add 12.
As an explicit function it would be f(x) = 12x - 9 (where y is the number itself and x is where the number is in the sequence--the first number is x = 1, the second, x = 2, and so on). This is because the sequence increases by 12 each time, and it starts at 3 (and 12 - 9 = 3).
1B: 3+5=8, 5+8=13, 8+13=21, 13+21=34.
The rule for this sequence (which is actually a famous sequence, commonly found in nature, callex Fibonnacis sequence) is that you add the previous number in the sequence to the current number in the sequence to get to the next number in the sequence.
2: an = a1 + (n-1)d is used to find any number in a sequence using n, or where the number is in the sequence.
(If you wanted to find the 5th number, for example, n would equal 5.)
Therefore, an is the nth number in the sequence and a1 is the first number in the sequence.
d is the common difference (the difference between any two consecutive terms in the sequence that is the same throughout the whole sequence).
(In question 1A, the common difference is 12.)
Therefore, for the sequence 123, 116, 109, 102, 95, ...
Part I: a1 is 123, and d is -7, because 116 minus 123 is negative 7 (and the sequence is decreasing).
Part II: The explicit formula is y = -7x + 130. Using our our equation an = a1 + (n-1)d and substituting in our values, we get...
y = 123 + (x-1)-7 (n = x and an = y)
= 123 + -7x + 7 (Distribute)
= -7x + 130 (Simplify)
Part III: We just plug in 100 for our x value...
f(x) = -7(100) + 130
= -700 + 130
= -570
The 100th term is -570.
3. An arithmetic sequence translates to a linear function; geometric becomes exponential, quadratic, cubic, etc.
As you know, arithmetic sequences have a common difference. That means the difference between any two consecutive terms is the same.
Geometric sequences have a common ratio. That means the quotient between any two consecutive terms is the same.
Part I: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, ...
Type of Sequence: Arithmetic
(It has a common difference--5)
Explicit Function: y = 5x
an = a1 + (n-1)d
y = 5 + (x-1)5
= 5 + 5x - 5
= 5x
Recursive Function: next = now + 5
The next term equals this term plus 5.
Part II: 2, 6, 18, 54, 162, ...
Type of Sequence: Geometric
(It has a common ratio--3)
Explicit Function: y = 2/3 * 3^x
Geometric functions have a different equation. r is the common ratio.
an = a1 * r^n-1
y = 2 * 3^x-1
= 2 * 3^x / 3
= 2/3 * 3^x
Recursive Function: next = now * 3, starting at 2
The next term equals this term times 3, starting at the number 2.
4: 16, 48, 80, ...
Part I:
The first term: 16
The common difference: 32
an = a1 + (n-1)d
y = 16 + (x-1)32
y = 16 + 32x - 32
y = 32x - 16
That's our explicit function. To find the 5th term, we substitute in 5 for x...
y = 32(5) - 16
y = 160 - 16
y = 144
Part II:
Second: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Distance: 16 48 80 112 144 176 208
y = 32x - 16
y = 32(4) - 16 = 128 - 16 = 112
y = 32(6) - 16 = 192 - 16 = 176
y = 32(7) - 16 = 224 - 16 = 208
Part III:
The values in the table form a(n) (arithmetic) sequence. The term values are shown in the (second) row, and the term numbers are shown in the (first) row. This sequence is associated with a(n) (linear) function. The domain of the function is the set of time values: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

51 and 42
Step-by-step explanation:
Use
x + y = 93
x - y = 9
Add those two equations together and you get 2x = 102
*y is not in the equation anymore because y + -y = 0*
Divide both sides by 2
x = 51
plug x into one of the equations; let's use x + y = 93
Then you get, 51 + y = 93
Subtract both sides by 51 and you get y = 42
Plug both in the other equation to make sure the numbers work.
51 + 42 = 93; true
51 - 42 = 9; true
