What is the 4th term of the linear sequence below?<br> -9,-5, -1,3,7,...
Anton [14]

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

Natali5045456 [20]

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\A(\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquadB(\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1})\qquad \qquadd = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{[-2-4]^2+[1-(-7)]^2}\implies AB=\sqrt{(-2-4)^2+(1+7)^2}\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{(-6)^2+8^2}\implies AB=\sqrt{36+64}\implies AB=\sqrt{100}\implies AB=10
