Describe the pattern in each sequence. Then find the next two terms of the sequence
Question
Answer:
General Arithmetic Progression: [tex]\boxed { \boxed {T_n= a_1 + d(n - 1)}}[/tex]
21 , 16 , 11 , 6 , 1 , -4
[tex]a_1 = 21, d = -5[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 21 -5(n - 1)[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 21 -5n + 1[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 22 -5n[/tex]
[tex]\boxed { \boxed {\text {Answer: } T_n = 22 -5n }}[/tex]
-3, 5, 13, 21, 29, 39
[tex]a_1 = -3, d = 8[/tex]
[tex]T_n = -3 + 8(n - 1)[/tex]
[tex]T_n = -3 + 8n - 8[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 8n - 11[/tex]
[tex]\boxed { \boxed {\text {Answer: } T_n = 8n - 11}}[/tex]
44, 16, -12, -40, -68
[tex]a_1 = 44, d = -28[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 44 - 28(n - 1)[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 44 - 28n + 28[/tex]
[tex]T_n = 72 -28n[/tex]
[tex]\boxed { \boxed {\text {Answer: } T_n = 72 - 28n}}[/tex]
