Question

What is the nth term rule of the linear sequence below?
-9, -5, -1,3,7,...

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given sequence

-9, -5, -1,3,7,...

Is A.P(,airthmetic progression)

So

nth term of an A.P =a+(n-1)d

Where a=first term (-9)

D=difference=(-5)-(-9)=4

So nth term=-9+(n-1)4

=4n-13

Answer is 4n-13
