Answer: 17</h3>
=========================================================
Work Shown:
a1 = 3 = first term
d = 2 = common difference (since we add 2 to each term to get the next one)
Let's compute the nth term.
an = a1 + (n-1)*d
an = 3 + (n-1)*2
an = 3 + 2n-2
an = 2n+1
-----------------------
To check things so far, we can plug in something like n = 2
an = 2n+1
a2 = 2*2+1
a2 = 5
Showing that the 2nd term is 5, which matches with the sequence given to us
Let's check n = 3
an = 2n+1
a3 = 2*3+1
a3 = 7
That matches as well. I'll let you check the others.
-----------------------
Plug in n = 8 to find the 8th term
an = 2n+1
a8 = 2*8+1
a8 = 17
The eighth term is 17, which is the final answer.
-----------------------
You could extend out the given sequence by adding 2 each time until you reach the 8th term
3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17
Though this method is slow if you need to find say the 38th term
by unitary method the exact answer is correct (2,920 glasses).
given, glasses of water each day = 8
therefore, by unitary method :
glasses of water in 365 day = 
hence the total glasses of water in 365 days = 2,920
