The nth term would be -2n+14
nth terms: 1 2 3 4
Sequence:12 10 8 6
This sequence has a difference of -2
Therefore it would become -2n. Replace n with 1 and you would get -2.
To get to the first term you have to add 14. Therefore the sequence becomes -2n+14.
To check your answer replace n with 2, 3 or 4. You will still obtain the number in the sequence that corresponds to the nth term.
:)
The nth term is (2n - 12).
2n - 12
It is: 2n+4
If you mean: 6 12 18 24 then the nth term is 6n
It is: nth term = -4n+14
The nth term is 18 -3n and so the next term will be 3
3n
3n
The given sequence is decreasing by 2 each time, starting from 12. To find the nth term, we can use the formula for an arithmetic sequence: (a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d), where (a_n) is the nth term, (a_1) is the first term, (n) is the term number, and (d) is the common difference. In this case, (a_1 = 12), (d = -2), and we need to find the general formula for the nth term. Therefore, the nth term for the sequence 12 10 8 6 4 is (a_n = 12 + (n-1)(-2)), which simplifies to (a_n = 14 - 2n).
Well, darling, the nth term for the sequence 18, 12, 6, 0, -6 is -6n + 24. So, if you plug in n = 1, you get 18; n = 2 gives you 12, and so on. Just a little math magic for you to enjoy!
The nth term in this arithmetic sequence is an=26+(n-1)(-8).
Ah, what a lovely sequence you have there! To find the nth term, you notice that each number is increasing by 2. So, if we start at 6, the nth term can be represented by the formula 2n + 4. Happy calculating, my friend!
