Find the nth term of this quadratic sequence 3 8 15 24

Sagot :

Baraq

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic sequence is a form. of mathematical progression of numbers in which the subsequent differences between each consecutive term differ by the exact amount. This is known as the common second difference.

Hence in this case,

we have

S= 3+8+15+24+…..+Tn - 1.

S=. 3+8+15+……………..Tn-1 + Tn

Deducting 2nd series from the first

We have 0=3+5+7+…….Tn

Hence, we have Tn= n (n+2)

= 24 (9+2)

= 24 + 11

= 35
