Question

The nth term of a sequence is n + 7
a) Work out the first three terms of the sequence.

Answer 1

8, 9, 10

Explanation:

To find the first three terms of the sequence where the nth term is given as n + 7, you can simply substitute n with 1, 2, and 3, one at a time. Here are the first three terms:

1st term (n = 1):

n + 7 = 1 + 7 = 8

2nd term (n = 2):

n + 7 = 2 + 7 = 9

3rd term (n = 3):

n + 7 = 3 + 7 = 10

So, the first three terms of the sequence are 8, 9, and 10.
