Answer:
A(101) = 252
Step-by-step explanation:
Utilize the equation A(n) = A1 + (n-1)d
- n > the nth term
- A1 > first term in sequence (852)
- d > common difference (-6)
Plug in and simplify.
- A(n) = 852 + (n-1)(-6)
- A(n) = 852 - 6n + 6
- A(n) = - 6n + 858
Finally, plug in 101 for n.
- A(101) = - 6(101) + 858
- A(101) = - 606 + 858
- A(101) = 252
