HELP ASAP 40 POINTS What is the equation for the nth term of the sequence
And what is the 52nd term of the sequence. -8,-12,-16

Given:

The sequence is -8, -12, -16.

To find:

The nth and 52th term  of the given sequence.

Solution:

We have,

-8, -12, -16

It is an AP because the difference between consecutive terms are equal. Here, first term is -8 and the common difference is

The nth term of an AP is

Where, a is first term and d is common difference.

Putting a=-8 and d=-4, we get

Putting n=52, we get

Therefore, the equation for the nth term of the given sequence is and the 52nd term of the sequence is -212.
