It's clear that we are adding term by 3 each time. To find the form of the nth term, we need to use the arithmetic form, which is:

an = a1 + (n - 1)d where:

  • d is some starting value
  • n is whatever position of the term you want to find.

Let a1 = 2 and d = 3. Then:

an = 2 + 3(n - 1)

= 2 + 3n - 3

= 3n - 1

Therefore, the answer is an = 3n - 1.

Yes it is

A single number, such as 2581114, does not make a sequence. There is, therefore, no nth term.
