Use the explicit formula an = a1 + (n - 1) d to find the 250th term of the sequence below. 57, 66, 75, 84, 93, ...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

pretty sure there needs to be a d in there

OpenStudy (amistre64):

oh, i see it now lol

OpenStudy (amistre64):

so, lets start by filling out what we know, and then all that leaves us is to determine the d part

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what does n signify?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have no clue

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[a_n\] represents the nth term of a seequence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d is the difference of two consecutive terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in this case d = 66-57=9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you do it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then, :)
