Answer:
Given an arithmetic sequence with the first term a1a1 and the common difference dd , the nthnth (or general) term is given by an=a1+(n−1)dan=a1+(n−1)d .
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the 27th27th term of the arithmetic sequence 5,8,11,54,...5,8,11,54,... .
a1=5, d=8−5=3a1=5, d=8−5=3
So,
a27=5+(27−1)(3) =83
Find the 40th40th term for the arithmetic sequence in which
a8=60a8=60 and a12=48a12=48 .
Substitute 6060 for a8a8 and 4848 for a12a12 in the formula
an=a1+(n−1)dan=a1+(n−1)d to obtain a system of linear equations in terms of a1a1 and dd .
a8=a1+(8−1)d→60=a1+7da12=a1+(12−1)d→48=a1+11da8=a1+(8−1)d→60=a1+7da12=a1+(12−1)d→48=a1+11d
Subtract the second equation from the first equation and solve for dd .
12=−4d−3=d12=−4d−3=d
Then 60=a1+7(−3)60=a1+7(−3) . Solve for aa .
60=a1−2181=a160=a1−2181=a1
Now use the formula to find a40a40 .
a40=81+39
