Question 789355: the first term of a sequence is 10 the term to term rule is add 5 what is the sixth term of the sequence Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the first term of a sequence is 10 the term to term rule is add 5 what is the sixth term of the sequence
-----
Since you are adding 5 to each term to get the next, the
sequence is arithmetic.
-----
The general term of an arithmetic sequence is a(n) = a(1) + (n-1)d
-------
The 1st term = a(1) = 10
The common difference = d = 5
-----
======
Ans: The 6th term = a(6) = 10 + 5*5 = 35
