What sequence is modeled by the graph below? coordinate plane showing the points (2,1) (3,2) (4,4) (5,8) a an = 2(2)n − 1 b an = 2( one half )n − 1 c an = 4(−2)n − 1 d an = one half (2)n − 1

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

The corresponding ordered pairs from the graph are:

(2,1) (3,2) (4,4) (5,8)

The y-values are:

1,2,4,8

The first term term is the term before 1,this has to be.

The common ratio is

The nth term is given by

Let's substitute the values to get,

This simplifies to,

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
