Marika is training for a track race. she starts by sprinting 100 yards. she gradually increases her distance, adding 4 yards a day for 21 days. which explicit formula models this situation? a. an = 100 + (n – 1)21 b. an = 21 + (n – 1)4 c. an = 100 + (n – 1)4 d. an = 4 + (n – 1)100

I think it's C

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not 100% sure but thats what i would guess.

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Initial distance Marika covered = 100 yards,

Also, She gradually increases her distance by 4 yards,

Thus, the difference between the distance of consecutive days is 4 yards,

So, there is an AP that shows the given situation,

Having first term, a = 100,

Common difference, d = 4,

Since, the explicit formula of an AP is,

Which is the required formula.

Option 'C' is correct.

if you use photomath right away it will give you the answer not like this app that you have to wait for people.
