Problem

The given table of values represents terms in an arithmetic sequence.
\( \begin{array}{ccccc}n & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ T_{n} & 9 & 17 & 25 & 33\end{array} \)
Identify \( d \), the common difference between consecutive terms.
\( d=8 \)
Write a simplified expression for the general \( n \)th term of the sequence, \( T_{n} \).
\( T_{n}=9+(n-1) 8 \)
\( T_{n}=1+8 n \)
Find the 13 th term of the sequence.
\[
T_{13}=\text { Enter your next step here }
\]

Answer

\( T_{13} = 105 \)

Steps

Step 1 :\( T_{n}=1+8 n \)

Step 2 :\( T_{13} = 1 + 8(13) \)

Step 3 :\( T_{13} = 1 + 104 \)

Step 4 :\( T_{13} = 105 \)
