He didn’t multiply the equation by 1/2 in the second part so it threw his whole answer off. Hope this helps

Answer:
15th term =29/3
16th term = 31/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given an arithmetic sequence with the first term a1 and the common difference d , the nth (or general) term is given by an=a1+(n−1)d .
First we find the 15th term
n=15
a1=1/3
d=1 - 1/3 = 2/3
Solution
1/3+(15-1)2/3
1/3+28/3
(1+28)/3
29/3
Lets find the 16th term
1/3+(16-1)2/3
1/3+30/3
(1+30)/3
31/3
