9th term for A(n) = -14 + (n - 1)(2)
impatient much?
well, just plug in 9 for n
A(9) = -14 + 8(2)
why? we answered your question.
To find the 9th term for the equation A(n) = -14 + (n - 1)(2), we need to substitute n = 9 into the equation and solve for A(9).
Step 1: Write down the equation: A(n) = -14 + (n - 1)(2).
Step 2: Replace n with 9: A(9) = -14 + (9 - 1)(2).
Step 3: Simplify the expression inside the parentheses: A(9) = -14 + (8)(2).
Step 4: Multiply 8 by 2: A(9) = -14 + 16.
Step 5: Add -14 and 16: A(9) = 2.
Therefore, the 9th term for the sequence defined by A(n) = -14 + (n - 1)(2) is 2.
