The expression 12.5x can be used to determine the total amount of wages earned after working x hours at a rate of $12.50 per hour. What is the total amount of wages earned by someone who
works 40 hours?

6250 because $12.50×40= 500 and i multiply it by the total amount and is 6250

, 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
