Answer:

The 29th term is

243

Explanation:

The above sequence is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

U(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where n is the number of terms

a is the first term

d is the common difference

From the question

a = - 121

d = -108 -- 121 = - 108 + 121 = 13

Since we are finding the 29th term

n = 29

The 29th term of the sequence is

U(29) = - 121 + ( 29 - 1) 13

= -121 + 28(13)

= -121 + 364

The final answer is

243

Hope this helps you
