Tickets to a local basketball team’s games cost $12 each. brendon and ed each bought tickets to four games. how much did they spend on tickets altogether

$136

Step-by-step explanation:

each game ticket costs $12, and both Brandon and Ed bought tickets to four games. so multiply 12 and two, and that will equal the cost they spent on one game together.

12 x 2 = 24

then multiply by four because that’s how many games they went to.

24 x 4 = $136

, 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

answer is because 4×10=40

and 98×4= is 392
