Determine the A. P whose third term is 16 and the 7th term exceeds the 5th term by 12 (2m)

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁, ____, 16, ____, a₅, _____, a₇

The difference of a₇ and a₅ is 2d (two steps to the next term).

It is given that 2d = 12  --> d = 6

We can subtract 6 from a₃ to find a₁

a₁ = 4, 10, 16, ____, a₅, _____, a₇

Input a₁ = 4, d = 6 into the explicit formula for an arithmetic equation.

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3
