You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The question is, "What is the nth term?"
You said you know the formula. Fill the parts of the formula.

Is this the formula you know?
highlight_green%28a%5Bn%5D=a%5B1%5D%2Bd%28n-1%29%29;
Do you know what a means?
Do you know what n means?
Do you know what d means?
