Question

Which sequence describes Ahmed's expected hourly wages, in dollars, starting with his current wage?

Answer 1

Since Ahmed will start with $7.50 per hour

Then the sequence must start with 7.50

Then the answer should be A or B or C

Since his hourly rate will increase by $0.25 per hour

Then the number in the sequence should be increased

Then the answer is B or C because A is decreasing

We have to add 0.25 to the first rate to get the second rate

`\begin{gathered} 7.50+0.25=7.75 \\ 7.75+0.25=8.00 \\ 8.00+0.25=8.25 \\ 8.25+0.25=8.50 \end{gathered}`

Then the correct answer is

$7.50, $7.75, $8.00, $8.25, $8.50

The answer is B
