$a_1 = 1$ , and

$a_{n+1} = a_n + (n + 1)$ for $n \ge 1$

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote $a_1 = 1$ , $a_2 = 3$ , $a_3 = 6$ , so that we can call

1 the 1st term, 3 the 2nd term, 6 the 3rd term,etc.

note the following:

from the 1st term (1) to the 2nd term (3), we go up by 2,from the 2nd term (3) to the 3rd term (6), we go up by 3from the 3rd term (6) to the 4th term (10), we go up by 4, andfrom the 4th term (10) to the 5th term (15), we go up by 5.

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from $a_1 = 1$ , to get to $a_2 = 3$ , we add $2(=1+1)$

from $a_2 = 3$ , to get to $a_3 = 6$ , we add $3 (=2+1)$

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

$a_1 = 1$ , and $a_{n+1} = a_n +(n + 1)$ for $n \ge 1$

an = 22 + (n-1) *6

110 seats

step-by-step explanation:

an=a1+(n-1)(d)

a1 = 22 this is the first item in the sequence

d =6 this is how the sequence goes up

a) an = 22 + (n-1) *6

b) a12 = 22 + (12-1) *6

a12 = 22+11*6

a12 = 22 +88

a12 = 110

0 and 5 minutes

step-by-step explanation:

given that one morning eight buses arrive late by the number of minutes given below:

0 8 2 6 9 2 0 7 8

write these in ascending order

0 0 2 6 7 8 8 9

in the afternoon two more buses arrive at the bus stop say by x and y minutes late.

total number of buses = 10

median = average of 4th and 5th after arranging in ascending order

since 4th entry is 6, the values of x and y should be below 6

also given 0 is the mode so either x or y or both should be 0 because then only 0 gets the maximum frequency and hence mode

thus we have

0 0 0 2 6 7 8 8 9 and another unknown entry which is below 6.

since median is 3.5, we have the unknown entry to be 5 only because then only median =( 2+5)/2

thus the after noon buses were late by 0 and 5 minutes.
