Answer:
The nth term is 109-9n
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the nth term of the given arithmetic sequence
Mathematically, we have the nth term as;
Tn = a + (n-1)d
where a is the first term which is 100 in this case
d is the common difference which is the value obtained by subtracting the preceding term from the succeeding term; it is constant throughout the sequence
The value here is thus;
82-91 = 91-100 = -9
Substituting these values
Tn = 100 + (n-1)-9
Tn = 100 -9n + 9
Tn = 100 + 9 - 9n
Tn = 109-9n
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, x+1,x+2, x +3 are the <span>numbers
so
</span>x + x +1 + x +2 +x +3 = 198
4x + 6 = 198
4x =198-6
4x = 192
x = 192/4
x = 48
x + 1 = 48 + 1 = 49
x + 2 = 48 + 2 = 50
x + 3 = 48 + 3 = 51
proof
48 + 49 + 50 + 51 = 198
so the numbers are 48, 49, 50, 51
fourth number in this sequence is 51
