A farmer has a crop of 2,000 orange trees at the beginning of this year. Each year, the farmer plans to plant 250 new trees. Assuming all of the trees from one year
live into the next, which explicit formula below can be used to determine the total
number of orange trees, a.,, on this farm at the end of the nth year?
a, = 2,250+250(n-1)
a, = 2,000 + 250(n-1)
a, = 2,250+250(n + 1)
a, = 2,000 + 250(n + 1)
