Answer:
n = 8
Explanation:
Given the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to be Tn = a+(n-1)d
a = first term of the sequence
n = number of terms
d = common difference.
Given the first element a = 2 and 22nd to be 14
T22 = a+(22-1)d = 14
a+21d = 14
Substtuting a = 2 into the equation to get d
2+21d = 14
21d = 12
d = 12/21
d = 4/7
The nth term of the sequence given a = 2 and d = 4/7 will be expressed as;
Tn = 2+(n-1)4/7
Given Tn = 6
6 = 2+(n-1)4/7
6 = 2+4/7 n - 4/7
6-2+4/7 = 4/7 n
32/7=4/7 n
32 = 4n
n = 32/4
n = 8
