Can someone look at my answer and let me know if I’m right? The problem is “Write the next term of the sequence. Then write the rule for the n-th term” If I’m wrong what am I doing wrong?I think it’s a1=1 d=7-4=3a10= 1+(10-1)3 =30?Next term is 30?

Can someone look at my answer and let me know if Im right The problem is Write the next term of the sequence Then write the rule for the nth term If Im wrong wh class=

Respuesta :

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given to be:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and d is the common difference.

From the sequence provided, we can see that the first term is 1 and the common difference is calculated to be:

[tex]4-1=3[/tex]

Therefore, the parameters for the sequence will be:

[tex]\begin{gathered} a_1=1 \\ d=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The next term of the sequence is gotten to be:

[tex]10+3=13[/tex]

Therefore, the next term is 13.

The nth term is gotten using the formula:

[tex]a_n=1+(n-1)3[/tex]
