To find out the equation for a sequence, the first thing you note is the difference between the numbers. In this case the difference is:
-8, -8, -8, -8
Thus the formula will be x-8n where x is not yet known.
For linear sequences like the one above, x is the 0th term. In this case it would be the term that would come before 22, or 22+8, or 30.
Thus the equation for the nth term is 30-8n
The nth term is 3n+7 and so the next number will be 22
The sequence has a difference of 10, so the nth term starts with 10n. Then to get to -8 from 10 you need to subtract 18. So the nth term is 10n - 18.
6n+10
You must mean what is the next number in the series, not the 'nth', which is undefined. The next number is 58.
3n+7
1,7,13,19
The nth term is 3n+7 and so the next number will be 22
The sequence has a difference of 10, so the nth term starts with 10n. Then to get to -8 from 10 you need to subtract 18. So the nth term is 10n - 18.
6n+10
It is: -6n+22
t(n) = 22 - 6n where n = 1, 2, 3, ...Answer:-14 is the next term in the above series
You must mean what is the next number in the series, not the 'nth', which is undefined. The next number is 58.
If you meant: 2 12 22 32 then the nth term = 10n-8
It is: nth term = 29-7n
3n+7
The nth term is 5n-3 and so the next term will be 22
the nth term is = 31 + (n x -9) where n = 1,2,3,4,5 ......... so the 1st term is 31+ (1x -9) = 31 - 9 =22 so the 6th tern is 31 + (6 x -9) = -23 Hope this helps
