Find the explicit formula for the general nth term of the arithmetic sequence described below. Simplify the formula and reduce any fractions to lowest terms.
a24=83/3 and d=4/3

Respuesta :

Answer:

an = 4/3n - 13/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is a1,

a24 = a1 + 23d

83/3 = a1 + 4/3* 23

a1 =    83/3 - 92/3

a1 = -9/3 = -3.

So the nth term an =  -3 + 4/3(n - 1)

an = -3 + 4/3 n - 4/3

an = 4/3n - 13/3
