Final answer:

To determine the sequence terms for 3n + 4, the first four terms are calculated by substituting n=1 through n=4, while the 10th term is found by substituting n=10. The resulting four terms are 7, 10, 13, and 16, and the 10th term is 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the first four terms and the 10th term of the arithmetic sequence defined by the formula 3n + 4. To find the terms, we simply substitute the term number for n in the formula.

  • 1st term (when n=1): 3(1) + 4 = 7
  • 2nd term (when n=2): 3(2) + 4 = 10
  • 3rd term (when n=3): 3(3) + 4 = 13
  • 4th term (when n=4): 3(4) + 4 = 16

For the 10th term (when n=10), we use the same approach:

10th term: 3(10) + 4 = 34.

This provides the sequence: 7, 10, 13, 16, ..., and the 10th term is 34.

Answer:

first 4 terms =7,10,13,16

10th term = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

3n+4

3(1)+4=7

3(2)+4=10

3(3)+4=13

3(4)+4=16

7,10,13,16

10th term = 3(10)+4= 34
