Find the 50th term.


Sagot :

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

For n=1, 1st term = 261 - 5(1-1) = 261 - 5*0 = 261

For n=2, 2nd term = 261 - 5(2-1) = 261 - 5*1 = 256

For n=3, 3rd term = 261 - 5(3-1) = 261 - 5*2 = 251

So, For n=n, nth term = 261 - 5(n-1)

Thus, For n=50, 50th term = 261 - 5(50-1) = 261 - 5*49 = 261 - 245 = 16
