We want to find the 98th term of the arithmetic sequence with first term 29 and 10th term 92. We will use the fact that the nth term of an arithmetic progression is given by an = a₁ + (n-1)d where a, is the -Select--- We first need to find the common difference d. Since a₁ = gives the following. 92 = 92 = = 9d term and d is the common d = +(-1)d +9d -Select--- between successive terms. and a 10 the formula above with n = 10
