What is the 5th term in the infinite aristhmetic Sequence 9,11,13??
Answers
Arithmetic Sequence
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence wherein the next term is can be found by adding or subtracting a constant or fixed number in the last term called the common difference. This tells that if you subtract the two consecutive terms in the sequence, you will always get a common value.
The formula in finding the term in a
sequence is:
an = a, + (n - 1) d
where:
an = the term to find
a = the first term in the list
n = the term position
d = common difference
Solution:
Let us now find the 5th term in the
sequence 9,11,13,... by finding the common
difference first and substituting the value
in the formula.
d = 13 - 11 = 2
an = a + (n - 1) d
a5 = 9 + (5 - 1) 2
= 9 + (4) 2
= 9 + 8
= 17
Final Answer:
17
(9, 11, 13, 15, 17)
