b) The first term of a sequence is 4.
The term to term rule of the sequences is : multiply by 3 and then add 2.
Write the first three terms of the sequence.
First term: 4
Second term: 4 x 3 = 12 + 2 = 14
Third term: 14 x 3 = 42 + 2 = 44
Fourth term: 44 x 3 = 132 + 2 = 134
Q. 8 (a) The nth term expression of a sequence is 2n – 1.
Work out the first three terms and the tenth term of the sequence.
First terms: 2 x 1 = 2 – 1 = 1
Second term: 2 x 2 = 4 – 1 = 3
Third term: 2 x 3 = 6 – 1 = 5 tenth term: 2 x 10 – 1 = 19
b) work out the nth term expression for the sequence 7, 10, 13, 16,…………..
