Answer:

102.3

Step-by-step explanation:

a_38 = -5

difference d= -2.9

We use general formula

a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d

WE make the formula for a_38 th term

Plug in 38 for n

a_{38} = a_1 + (38-1)d

Now plug in -2.9 for d and -5 for a_38

-5 = a_1 + (38-1)(-2.9)

-5 = a_1 - 107.3

Now add 107.3 on both sides

102.3 = a_1

option A is correct
