Q) Consider this sequence 1(8-7), 2(10-8), 3(12-9), 4(14-10), ........, ........ . (i) Write down the next term and the 10th term of this sequence in the form a(b-c) where a, b and c are integers. (ii) Write down the nth term in the form a(b-c) and then simplify your answer.
8-7 is one 10-8 is 2 12-9 is 3 14-10 is 4 do you see the pattern here
Next term (16,-11) 10th term (26,-16)
b is yes they are integers

GriffLovesYou i didnt understand but ty
im done bye gtg eat breakfast
enjoy breakfast @GriffLovesYou
a(b-c) you can see the a term going 1,2,3 no? b term going 8,10,12,14 and etc. by the multiplication of 2 and c term going -7,-8,-9,-10
oh oh oh yes thank youu @LXelle
As for the 10th term you're definitely not gonna count like crazy right? You use the formula Tn= a+(n-1)d}
Same goes for the nth term they ask in ii)
