Ivy and andrey were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence -100, -50,0,50,
ivy said the formula is f(n) = -100 + 50(n-1).
andrey said the formula is f(n) = -150 + 50n.

Both Ivy and Andrey

Step-by-step explanation:

-100, -50, 0, 50 is an arithmetic sequence, because it has a common difference:

-50 − (-100) = 50

0 − (-50) = 50

50 − 0 = 50

The first term is -100 and the common difference is 50, so:

f(n) = -100 + 50 (n − 1)

Simplifying:

f(n) = -100 + 50n − 50

f(n) = -150 + 50n

So both Ivy and Andrey are correct.

multiply length by height. multiply the length by the height, and then double the product. work out 10 x 10 results = 100 square inches, then work out 100 x 2 = 200. the answer is 200 square inches.
