Answer:
The 4th term of the linear sequence = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First term, a = -9
Common difference, d = -5 - (-9)
= -5 + 9
= 4
d = 4
The 4th term of the linear sequence = a + (n - 1)d
where,
n = 4
a + (n - 1)d
= -9 + (4 - 1)4
= -9 + (3)4
= -9 + 12
= 3
The 4th term of the linear sequence = 3
Let's separate this problem into several parts:
1. The product of x
AND
2. The sum of 6 and 8
TIMES
3. The square of x
So translating this word problem into numbers, we have:
x TIMES (6+8) TIMES x²
so that is:
x * 14 * x²
which is:
14x^(2+1) = 14x³
