@SolomonZelman
3, -2, -7, -12, -17 2, 7, 12, 17, 22 -3, 2, 7, 12, 17 -2, -7, -12, -17, -22
so what is the difference between term 10 and 11?
im not sure
whats 47 - 42?
5
correct, whats the difference between term 11 and 12?
also 5 but it could be 1 one of the 2
correct so each term is 5 more than the previous term, and each term is 5 less than the next term, so you can subtract 5 from the 10th term to get the 9th term, and repeat that process until you get the 5th term , and so on
0h so i think its b
2, 7, 12, 17, 22
close, off by one term
22 is the 6th term
i think you can get it from there, nice work
