Max is stacking logs at his campground for firewood. After his first load of logs, he has 8 logs on the stack. After his seventh load of logs, he has 62 logs on the stack. Use sequence notation to represent the arithmetic function.
an = 8 + 6(n − 1)
an = 62 + 6(n − 1)
an = 8 + 9(n − 1)
an = 62 + 9(n − 1)

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the recursive function of Max's stack of logs. Let's use the formula to help us out.

In the formula, represents the nth term, represents the first term, and d is the common difference.

Since the first load of logs had 8 logs in it, we know that . Now, we want to find d, so let's use the information that . Plug these into the formula to find d:

62 = 8 + 6d

6d = 54

d = 9

Thus, our final equation is: , which is C.

it is 8 + 9(n - 1). (third one) 8 is the start of it. so, we have 6 loads left. subtract 62 from 8, leaving us with 54. then, 54 /6 equals 9, therefore the answer

aye bru this a great thing your doin here.
