What is the formula for the following arithmetic sequence?

12, 6, 0, -6, ...

an = 12 + (-6)( n - 1)
an = -6 + 12( n - 1)
an = 6 + 12( n - 1)
an = 12 + 6( n - 1)

Correct First answer - aₙ = 12 + (-6)(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: arithmetic sequence 12, 6 , 0 , -6,

First term       a₁ = 12

Second term a₂ = 6

Third term     a₃ = 0

we will get the difference

d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ = 6 - 12 = 0 - 6 = - 6

d = - 6

a₂ = a₁ + d

a₃ = a₂ + d = a₁ + 2 d

a₄ = a₃ + d = a₁ + 3 d

aₙ = a₁ + (n -1) d

aₙ = 12 + (n -1) (-6) = 12 + (-6) (n -1)

aₙ = 12 + (-6) (n -1)

step-by-step explanation:

9 sandwiches per hour

step-by-step explanation:

when we have a rate, we want a 1 in the denominator

27/3 = 9
