The depth of snow after n hours of a snowstorm is represented by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) + 0.8 where f(0) = 2.5. Which statement describes the sequence of numbers generated by the function?

The starting value is f(0) = 2.5, so the snow depth when the storm began was 2.5 inches. The rule f(n + 1) = f(n) + 0.8 means each hour’s depth is 0.8 inches greater than the previous hour’s depth. Therefore, the depth began at 2.5 inches and increased by 0.8 inches each hour.
