Question

a(n) = -6 + 3(n-1)

Find the 16th term in the expression.

Answer 1

Answer:

The 16th term in the expression is 39

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$a(n)=-6+3(n-1)$

we know that

To find out the 16th term, substitute the value of n=16 in the expression above

so

For n=16

substitute

$a(16)=-6+3(16-1)$

$a(16)=-6+3(15)$

$a(16)=-6+45$

$a(16)=39$

therefore

The 16th term in the expression is 39
