Question

For each sequence find the first 4 terms and the 10th term

Answer 1

Answer:For these, n is equal to the term you want. So you substitute the number in for whichever term you want. This means:

a) 1 (1st term) + 5 = 6

2 (2nd term) + 5 = 7

3 (3rd term) + 5 = 8

4 (4th term) + 5 = 9

10 (10th term) + 5 = 15

And so on for b (not going to keep writing the term, I’m sure you get that by now.

b) 2(1) - 1 = (2x1) - 1 = 1

2(2) - 1 = (2x2) - 1 = 3

2(3) - 1 = (2x3) - 1 = 5

2(4) - 1 = (2x4) - 1 = 7

2(10) - 1 = (2x10) - 1 = 19

Hope this helps :)
