The common difference, d, is 5 and the starting value, a, is 2.
Filling this in the form of [tex] x_n=a+d(n-1)[/tex]
you get
[tex]x_n = 2+5(n-1) [/tex]
Hey there,
Your question states:
What is the function for the arithmetic sequence
(2,7,12,17,22)
By using the formula [tex] [tex] a_{n} \ a_{1} + d(n-1) \ to \ get \ the \ sequence[/tex]
The [tex]mean[/tex] of the arithmetic sequence would be [tex]\boxed{12}[/tex]
And by identifying the sequence by using the formula, it would be . . .
[tex] \boxed{a_{n} =5n-3}[/tex]
Hope this helps.
