Question

Find the 29th term of the arithmetic sequence 182,176,170

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

14

Explanation:

The first term of the sequence is 182, and the common difference is 176-182=-6. So, the general term is ...

an = a1 +d(n -1)

an = 182 -6(n -1)

The 29th term will be ...

a29 = 182 -6(29 -1)

a29 = 14
