Question 943026: Trying to solve for n in this equation. The second characters in an and a1 are subscripts. I'm not sure how to put those into this calculator thing, sorry :(
a(subscript-n) = a(subscript-1) + (n-1)d

Answer by richard1234(7193) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
On this site, { { { a[n] = a[1] + (n-1)d } } } gives (remove spaces)

In TeX/LaTeX, (using * [tex \large a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d ] gives

(remove spaces)

You can solve for n but it will be in terms of
