The annual membership fee at a local club is $100. After each year of membership, the fee is lowered by $8 a year. The

arithmetic sequence {100, 92, 84,...) models this situation.
Write an explicit function that describes the fee at the club after n years of membership. Then rewrite your function in the
slope-intercept form.

Answer:

y = 100 - 8(n - 1)

Explanation:

I. if n = 1 or 1st year = 100 - 8(1-1) is 100

if n = 2 or 2nd year = 100 - 8(2-1) is 92

if n = 3 or 3rd year = 100 -8(3-1) is 84

Hope it'll help.
