Question

10. The value of the 8th term is 78.The sequence is increasing by 10 at each step.Explicit equation: y = 10x - 2Recursive: now = previous term + 10Find the 9th term.Explanation:

Answer 1

We have the explicit equatiion:

`\text{ y = 10x - 2}`

The 8th term is 78

y = 10 * 8 - 2

y = 80 - 2

We replaced x by 8

Therefore, for finding the 9th term, we calculate the value this way:

y = 10 * 9 - 2

y = 90 - 2

y = 88

The 9th term of the series is 88
