How many terms are there in an arithmetic sequence whose first term and last terms?

[tex]\rm\begin{gathered} \rm{Given:}{\rm \begin{cases}{ \rm \: a1 = -3} \\ { \rm an\: = 11} \\\rm \: d =2 \end{cases}}\end{gathered}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \: an = a1 + (n - 1)d \\\rm = - 3 + 2(n - 1) \\ \rm= 2n - 5 = 11 \\ \rm2n = 16 \\ \rm \: n = 8[/tex]
