The explicit rule for given sequence is:

a_n=2+10n

Further explanation:

We have to determine first of all if the sequence is arithmetic or geometric.

  • If the difference of two consecutive terms is same then the sequence is arithmetic sequence
  • If the ratio of two consecutive terms is same then the sequence is geometric sequence

Given sequence is:

12,22,32,42​

a_1=12\\a_2=22\\a_3=32\\.......\\Let\\d=Common\ difference\\d=a_2-a_1=22-12=10\\d=a_3-a_2=32-22=10

The common difference is 10 which is same for all consecutive terms. So the sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The general formula for arithmetic sequence is:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\Here,\\a_n\ is\ the\ nth\ term\\a_1\ is\ the\ first\ term\\d\ is\ the\ common\ difference

Putting the values of a1 and d

a_n= 12+(n-1)(10)\\a_n=12+10n-10\\a_n=2+10n

The explicit rule for given sequence is:

a_n=2+10n

Keywords: Arithmetic sequence, Common Difference

What number should be added to 95 to get a sum of −21?
Natali [406]

Answer: -116

Step-by-step explanation: Since negative numbers are involved, the best way to solve this is add 95 and POSITIVE 21. This gives you 116. Since you move from a positive to a negative, the 116 needs to be negative
