Question 13 • CUSD Math 01 A (5.0)

An electrician earns $110 after his first hour of working for a client. His total pay based on the number of hours worked can be represented using the sequence shown.110, 130, 150, 170, ...

Answer
A
f(n + 1) = f(n) + 20
B
f(n + 1) = f(n) + 110
C
f(n + 1) = f(n + 1) + 20
D
f(n + 1) = f(n + 1) + 110

Explanation

The pay sequence is 110, 130, 150, 170, so the total increases by $20 for each additional hour. A recursive rule adds that increase to the previous term: f(n + 1) = f(n) + 20. Therefore, choice A, “f(n + 1) = f(n) + 20,” is correct.
