Respuesta :

1) a. 7,13,19,25,31    ⇒  a(1) = 6(1) + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7.

3) 
a. a_n=-3+4(n-1) 

7) a(n) = 20 - 4(n-1) 
⇒ d. -24

8) 32 - 20 = 12 ; 12/2 = 6 
20 + 6 = 26  This is the missing term.
26 + 6 = 32

10)
1 - 625 / 1 = 625
2 - 625 / 5 = 125
3 - 125 / 5 =   25
4 -   25 / 5 =     5
5 -     5 / 5 =      1
6 -     1 / 5 =     1/5
7 - 1/5 ÷ 5 =    1/25
8 - 1/25 ÷ 5 = 1/125
9 - 1/125 ÷ 5 = 1/625
10 - 1/625 ÷ 5 = 1/3125  Choice A.
