Question

Find the 17th term of the arithmetic sequence with the terms a1=-7 and d=3

Answer 1

Answer:

41

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 7 and d = 3, thus

$a_{17}$ = - 7 + (16 × 3) = - 7 + 48 = 41
