12, 17, 22... find the 35th term
1 answer:
Answer:
a₃₅ = 182
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference d between consecutive terms, that is
d = 17 - 12 = 22 - 17 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 12 and d = 5 , then
a₃₅ = 12 + (34 × 5) = 12 + 170 = 182
