find the 44th in the sequence of 5,12,19,26
as you showed,
a = 5, d=7
so a_44 = 5+43*7 = 306
since 26 is the 4th number, the 44th is 26+40*7 = 306
You are correct. I apologize for the error in my calculations.
The 44th number in the sequence is indeed 306. Thank you for pointing that out.
In the sequence given, each number is increasing by 7. Thus, to find the 44th number, we can calculate it by adding 7 to the previous number.
Starting with the first number given, which is 5:
5 + 7 = 12
12 + 7 = 19
19 + 7 = 26
So the 44th number in the sequence would be:
26 + (7 * 38) = 26 + 266 = 292
Therefore, the 44th number in the sequence is 292.
