A gallon of milk is slowly leaking in your refrigerator. The number of ounces in the container, t minutes after the milk began leaking is given by the equation v(t) = 128e^.0.007t. How fast is
the milk leaking from the gallon container at the end of 5 minutes.

, and

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

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 , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

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

, and for

sorry not knowing about that
