Question

An = 20n - 39

Find the Fourth Term, Fifth Term, and 52nd term.
a) Fourth Term: 61, Fifth Term: 80, 52nd Term: 1021
b) Fourth Term: -19, Fifth Term: 1, 52nd Term: 981
c) Fourth Term: 61, Fifth Term: 80, 52nd Term: 941
d) Fourth Term: -19, Fifth Term: 1, 52nd Term: 1021

Answer 1

To find the fourth term, substitute n = 4 into the given expression. The fourth term is 41. To find the fifth term, substitute n = 5 into the given expression. The fifth term is 61. To find the 52nd term, substitute n = 52 into the given expression. The 52nd term is 1001.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the fourth term, substitute n = 4 into the given expression. An = 20n - 39
Fourth Term: A4 = 20(4) - 39 = 80 - 39 = 41

To find the fifth term, substitute n = 5 into the given expression. An = 20n - 39
Fifth Term: A5 = 20(5) - 39 = 100 - 39 = 61

To find the 52nd term, substitute n = 52 into the given expression. An = 20n - 39
52nd Term: A52 = 20(52) - 39 = 1040 - 39 = 1001
