Answer:
First term of the sequence is 10 and common difference is 3. Thus, first three terms of the sequence are 10, 13 and 16. Let 100 be the nth term of the sequence. ... Therefore, 100 is the 31st term of the sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:
First term of the sequence is 10 and common difference is 3.
a1 = 10 and d = 3
Next term = a2=a1+d=10+3=13
a3=a2+d=13+3=16
Thus, first three terms of the sequence are 10, 13 and 16.
Let 100 be the nth term of the sequence.
an=a1+(n−1)d
100=10+(n−1)3
90=(n−1)3
n−1=30
n=31, which is a whole number.
Therefore, 100 is the 31st term of the sequence.
