Question

Find the indicated term of each arithmetic sequence.

a_n = 56, d = 13, n = 73
a) 1560
b) 1060
c) 806
d) 556

Answer 1

The indicated term of the arithmetic sequence is 992.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the indicated term of the arithmetic sequence, we use the formula: An = A1 + (n-1)d, where An represents the nth term, A1 is the first term, n is the position of the term, and d is the common difference. In this case, A1 = 56, d = 13, and n = 73. Plugging the values into the formula gives:

An = 56 + (73-1) x 13
An = 56 + 72 x 13
An = 56 + 936
An = 992.

Therefore, the indicated term of the arithmetic sequence is 992.
