Question

i count on in equal steps
the first number is -5 and my 5th number is 3.
what is the 3rd number?

Answer 1

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

counting in equal step would be same as an arithmetic series

nth term = a + (n-1)d

where, a = first number, d = difference , n= term

here,

1st number = a = -5

5th number = a +4d = 3

-5 +4d = 3

d = 2

3rd number = a +2d = -5 + 2(2) = -1

Answer 2

Answer:

third number is -1

hope u understand
