\boxed{a_{n}=-3+8(n-1)}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The explicit formula for the general nth term of the arithmetic sequence is given by:

a_{n}=a_{1}+d(n-1) \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ a_{n}:nth \ term \\ \\ n:Number \ of \ terms \\ \\ a_{1}:First \ term \\ \\ d:common \ difference

Here we know that:

a_{1}=-3 \\ \\ a_{10}=69

So, our goal is to find the common difference substituting into the formula:

a_{10}=a_{1}+d(10-1) \\ \\ 69=-3+d(9) \\ \\ Solving \ for \ d: \\ \\ 9d=69+3 \\ \\ 9d=72 \\ \\ d=8

Finally, we can write the explicit formula as:

\boxed{a_{n}=-3+8(n-1)}

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

\boxed{D = 69}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is:

3x^2-9x+1 = 0

Comparing it with the standard form of Quadratic Equation ax^2+bx+c = 0 , we get:

a = 3, b = -9 and c = 1

Discriminant = b² - 4ac

D = (-9)²-4(3)(1)

D = 81 - 12

D = 69
