Question 94827: 8, 17, 26, 35, 44,...
The first 5 terms in a sequence are shown above. Each term after the first is formed by adding 9 to the term immediately preceeding it. Which term in this sequence is equal to 8+(26-1)9?

8 is the 1st term so (26-1)9=25 terms more than the 1st one. So it's the 26th.
