determine the term 6 generated by the rule TN is equals to n squared minus n and over 2​

Sagot :

Given:

Consider the rule of a sequence is:

[tex]T_n=\dfrac{n^2-n}{2}[/tex]

To find:

The 6th term generated by the given rule.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]T_n=\dfrac{n^2-n}{2}[/tex]

Substituting [tex]n=6[/tex] in the above rule, we get

[tex]T_6=\dfrac{6^2-6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]T_6=\dfrac{36-6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]T_6=\dfrac{30}{2}[/tex]

[tex]T_6=15[/tex]

Therefore, the 6th term generated by the given rule is 15.
