where you see an \(n\) put a \(9\)
compute
\[A_9=7+(9-1)\times 3\] that is all
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Do u mean A^9 ?
OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):
a(9)=7+24=31
OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):
so the 9th term is 31
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so C ?

at the risk of repeating myself, replace \(n\) by \(9\)!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[A_9=7+(9-1)\times 3\] see what you get when you do that piece of arithmetic
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah but do u mean A^9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
does it say \(A^9\) ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no but i don't know how to do the other one

i wish i knew another way to put it
you want \(A_{\color{red}9}\) and you have \[A_\color{red}n=7+(\color{red}n-1)\times 3\]
therefore
\[\huge A_{\color{red}9}=7+(\color{red}9-1)\times 3\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
does A 9 mean Ax9 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Dan, help me out here
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no it means the ninth term
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the first term is \(A_1\) the second is \(A_2\) the third is \(A_3\) and the nth is \(A_n\)
you want the ninth term
