4. Find the 50th term of the sequence; 7, 11, 15, 19,​

Sagot :

Answer:

203

Explanation:

We are given the sequence

7, 11, 15, 19

We determine the differences between consecutive terms:

11-7 = 4

15-11 = 4

19-15 = 4

Since the differences are constant, the sequence is arithmetic. Its elements are:

a₁ = 7

d = 4

The rule for the nth term is:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)  d= 7+4 (n-1) = 7+4n-4 = 4n+3

aₙ= 4n + 3

We find the 50th term or a₅₀ using the formula for the nth term

aₙ = 4n + 3

a₅₀ = 203

Therefore, the 50th term of the sequence is 203.
