Answer:

A. [tex]a_n=128-4n[/tex]

B. 72 ounce remaining

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

Start off is with 128 oz and with each cup (n), 4 oz is gone (subtracted). Thus we can write the sequence as:

[tex]a_n=128-4n[/tex]

B.

To find the amount of water remaining, we have to substitute 14 into n of the formula found above. Thus:

[tex]a_n=128-4n\\a_n=128-4(14)\\a_{14}=128-56\\a_{14}=72[/tex]

Hence, 72 oz is remaining

Answer: 233 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5x=3n+x

10*50x=305x - the amount remaining equals

233oz
