\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t%5Bn%5D+=+t%5B1%5D+%2B+%28n+-+1%29d\", with:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t%5Bn%5D\" being the value of the term being sought\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"n\" being the term number\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t%5B1%5D\" being the 1st term\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"d\" being the common difference\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Be aware that term 1, or \"t%5B1%5D\" represents its value after year 1, which is $16,500 ($15,000 + 1,500).\r
