Question

8,25,42,,
Sequence find the 82nd term

Answer 1

1385

Explanation:

1) the difference is d=25-8=42-25=17;

the sequence given in the condition is arithmetic one (linear relationship).

2) in order to calculate the value of the 82d term:

a(n)=a(1)+d*(n-1), where n - number of required term (it is 82), then

a(82)=8+17*(82-1)=8+1377=1385.
