Find the 96th term of the arithmetic sequence

-3, - 14, - 25, ...

-1059

Step-by-step explanation:

Katelyn, this is super easy to understand.

Anyways, to find the 96th term of the sequence, first subtract - 14 and - 3. You may be thinking it is - 17, but it is not. - 17 is only if you are subtracting - 14 and 3.

(-14) - (-3) = - 14 + 3 = - 11.

That means the difference between each number is - 11.

Now all you have to do is take the - 11 and multiply it by 96, which is - 1056. Then, add the - 1056 to - 3, which is - 1059. That should be your answer.

Your school may have taught you a different way, but this is my way.
