BRAINLIEST, THANKS, 5 STARS & 15 POINTS IF ANSWERED CORRECTLY. What is the 52nd term of the sequence below?
-38, -35, -32, -29...

115

Step-by-step explanation:

It adds 3 every time and starts with -38. Our equation is:

a52 = -38+3(52-1);

a52 = -38 + 153

a52 = 115

115

Step-by-step explanation:

→ First we need to work out the nth term. First we find the difference between each term

-38, -35, -32, -29... ⇔ +3

→ We know the first bit is 3n now we have to find the other section. We need to write the 3 times tables on top of each corresponding term

3 ,   6   ,  9  , 12

-38, -35, -32, -29...

→ We can see the to get from 3 to -38 we minus 41. So the nth term is

3n - 41

→ Now we substitute in 52 for n

3 × 52 - 41

→ Simplify
