If a1=8 and d=1, find a73 *

Question

If a1=8 and d=1, find a73 *

Answer 1

nth term of arithmetic sequence:

an = a1 + (n-1) d

where n is the number of the term

a1 is the first term

d is the difference between the terms

you are given a1 and d. since you are trying to find the 73rd term, n = 73.
