Question

An= 4n+ 22
Find a13 using the explicit formula?

Answer 1

Using the explicit formula an = 4n + 22, you substitute 13 for n to calculate a13, giving you a13 = 4(13) + 22, which simplifies to a13 = 74.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a13 using the explicit formula given for the sequence, an = 4n + 22, we simply substitute 13 for n in the formula.

a13 = 4(13) + 22

We then perform the multiplication: 4(13) = 52

And then add 22: 52 + 22 = 74

So, a13 equals 74 for the given sequence based on the provided explicit formula.
