BONUS: At the end of the harvest season, Omar wonders if it is time to cover the garden with a tarp. He understands that as the temperature decreases, moisture in the air condenses into dew which freeze at 0°C and may damage the plants in the garden. At 4:00 P. M., the temperature is 5°C. The temperature is predicted to decrease 0.5°C every two hours until 4:00 A. M. Does Omar need to cover the garden? Show your work

thank you for the points

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

a(n) - a(n-1) -3

discussion:

this ones a bit interesting. given a(n) = 5 - 3n consider this:

a(n-1) = 5 - 3(n-1)

          = (5 - 3n) + 3             => but a(n) = 5 - 3n, the first term

          = a(n)   + 3                 => subtract 3 from both sides

a(n-1) -3 = a(n)  

or

a(n) - a(n-1) -3
