Tonye charges $3.50 per hour to baby-sit. The sequence $3.50 $7.00, $10.50, $14.00, represents how much she

charges for each subsequent hour, For example, $10.50 is the third term that represents how much she changes for 3
hours. What are the next three terms in the sequence? How much does she charge for 7 hours of babysitting?

It would be $24.50. An easier way if it’s going up by a constant amount, you can multiply! So you would just multiply 7 hours by $3.50 per hour (7 x $3.50 = $24.50)
