Answer:
An equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence
2,5,8,11,...
An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by
here
- a₁ = 2
computing the differences of all the adjacent terms
- d = 5-2 = 3, d = 8-5=3, d=11-8=3
Using the nth term formula
substituting a₁ = 2, d = 3
Thus, an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence.
