Answer:
[tex]a_{46}=209.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term of the sequence is [tex]a_1=7[/tex]
The common difference is [tex]d=11.5-7=4.5[/tex]
The nth term is
[tex]a_n=a_1+d(n-1)[/tex]
The 46th term is
[tex]a_{46}=7+4.5(46-1)[/tex]
[tex]a_{46}=7+4.5(45)[/tex]
[tex]a_{46}=209.5[/tex]
Answer:
a₄₆ = 209.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given a arithmetic sequence.
7,11.5,16,20.5,25,...
We have to find the 46th term in the sequence.
The formula to find the nth term is
[tex]a_{n} = a_{1} -d(n-1)[/tex] where d is common difference.
Now, we have to find the common difference d.
d = 11.5-7
d = 4.5
a₁ = 7
Putting the value of common difference and n = 46 in given formula, we have
a₄₆ = 7+(4.5)(46-1)
a₄₆ = 7+4.5(45)
a₄₆ = 7+202.5
a₄₆ = 209.5 which is the answer.
