An anchor chain has 32 links lying on a ship's deck, while the rest of the chain is below deck height. each time the raise-anchor control is activated, 9 more links come over the edge to lie on the deck.

write a next-now equation to model the number of chain links on the deck after n activations of the raise-anchor control.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sounds like an arithmetic sequence, with first term being 32 and increment 9.  The nth term will then be a(n) = 32 + 9(n - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3

a28=58

step-by-step explanation:

a1=a1+(n-1)d

a28= 4+ (28-1)2

a28=4+(27)(2)

a28=4+54

a28=58
