Exercise 18 Page 204

Make a table by pairing each term with its position. Then, plot the obtained ordered pairs.

Practice makes perfect
Let's make a table to organize the terms of the given arithmetic sequence as ordered pairs.
Position (n) Term (a_n) Ordered pair
1 -15 ( 1, - 15)
2 0 ( 2, 0)
3 15 ( 3, 15)
4 30 ( 4, 30)

Now, let's plot the obtained ordered pairs using the horizontal axis for the position n and the vertical axis for the term a_n.
