Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

17 is correct ans

Answer 2

Answer:

a. 17

Since:

5 + 3 = 8

8 + 3 = 11

11 + 3 = 14

14 + 3 = 17.

Or

you can solve by AP:

a = 5, d = 3, n = 5

By nth term formula:

nth = a + (n-1)d

=> 5th term = 5 + (5-1)(3)

=> 5th term = 5 + 12

=> 5th term is 17
