By "the nth term" of a sequence we mean an expression that will allow us to calculate the term that is in the nth position of the sequence. For example consider the sequence 2, 4, 6, 8, 10,... The pattern is easy to see. # The first term is two. # The second term is two times two. # The third term is two times three. # The fourth term is two times four. # The tenth term is two times ten. # the nineteenth term is two times nineteen. # The nth term is two times n. In this sequence the nth term is 2n.
It is the sequence of first differences. If these are all the same (but not 0), then the original sequence is a linear arithmetic sequence. That is, a sequence whose nth term is of the form t(n) = an + b
Well, it would depend what the sequence was...? If the sequence was 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20, then the 9th term would be 18!
That depends what the pattern of the sequence is.
An infinite sequence.
Which of the following equations could be used to solve for the tenth term of the following sequence?15, 13, 11, 9, ...
1st term= 3 2nd term = 5 Nth term = 2n+1 10th term= 21 = 2(10)+1

Some number x is added to 7 for every number in the sequence. So, the second number is 7+x, the third number is 7+2x... So the tenth number is 7+9x = 34. Solve for x, x=3. The fifth number is 7+4x, which is 7+(4*3), which is 19

2n-1 to the tenth term = 1
The 9th number in the Fibonacci Sequence is 34, and the 10th number in the Fibonacci sequence is 89.
