Sequences & SeriesKen wants to get more exercise so he begins by walking for 20 minutes. Each
day for two weeks, he increases the length of time that he walks by 5 minutes.
At the end of two weeks, the length of time that he has walked each day is given
by the following arithmetic sequence:
20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85
