Find a 101 of the sequence 5, 8, 11, ....

A. 302
B. 311
C. 305
D. 308

Sagot :

Answer:

305

Step-by-step explanation:

We are adding 3 each time

5+3 = 8

8+3 = 11

The formula for an arithmetic sequence is

an = a1+d(n-1) where a1 is the first term and d is the common difference

an = 5+3(n-1)

We want the 101 term

a101 = 5 +3(101-1)

      = 5+3(100)

    = 5+300

   = 305
