PLEASE HELP!!!! IMA DESPRATE!!!!!!!!Find the second term in the sequence defined by an = −5(n2 + 1n).
Dmitrij [34]

The second term of the given sequence aₙ = -5(n² + 1n) when solved gives us; a₂ = -20

<h3>How to find the nth term of a sequence?</h3>

We are given the formula for a sequence as;

aₙ = -5(n² + 1n)

Where n is the position of the term.

Now, for the first term, we will have;

a₁ = -5(1² + 1(1))

a₁ = -10

The second term of the sequence is;

a₂ = -5(2² + 1(2))

a₂ = -20
