Question 256266: Find the fifth, tenth, and hundredth term of each sequence...
4,14,24,34
I know that the way to solve the problem is to use the equation;
A(n)= a+(n-1)d.
But I just Do Not know which number goes to which variable? Since each term adds 10. Would the equation be. A(5)= A+(5-1)10?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a = 4 and d = 10
A(5 ) = 4 + 40 = 44
A(10) = 4 + 90 = 94
A(100)= 4 + 990 = 994
