The answer is...12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the formula for the nth term ,
First , find the common difference or common ratio.
Common difference =

Common ratio =

The common difference applies to the other given numbers for example :

this proves that it is an arithmetic sequence and the given formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
T_n =a(n-1)d
Where n = no of terms
a= first term
d= common difference
I think the mean of variable a is 4

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = 3x + 1
f(-2) is x = -2
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: f(-2) = 3(-2) + 1
- Multiply: f(-2) = -6 + 1
- Add: f(-2) = -5
