Answer:
a₅ = 37
Step-by-step explanation:
The term to term rule ' subtract 3 ' is the common difference d of an arithmetic sequence with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₁₂ = 16, then
a₁ + 11d = 16 ← substitute d = - 3
a₁ + 11(- 3) = 16
a₁ - 33 = 16 ( add 33 to both sides )
a₁ = 49 , then
a₅ = 49 + (4 × - 3) = 49 - 12 = 37
