The series is a(n) = 4n² +5n. . . and this is the general formula which also gives the nth term.

When n = 1, 4n² + 5n = 4*1 + 5*1 = 9

When n = 2, 4n² + 5n = 4*4 + 5*2 = 26 . . .and so on

When n = 5, 4n² + 5n = 4*25 + 5*5 = 125.

The series can be determined using the Difference Technique.

A second difference of 8 gives the first term 4n². . . . as a 2nd difference of 2 equates to n².

After applying this to the original series, the revised series produces a 1st difference of 5, hence 5n.

Which rule will find the nth term of the arithmetic sequence -58 -65 -72 -86?

It appears that a number of -79 is missing in the sequence and so if you meant -58 -65 -72 -79 -86 then the nth term is -7n-51 which makes 6th term in the sequence -93

What is 0.408 as a fraction?

To convert a decimal to a fractionm. Place the decimal over 'one point' followed by the same number of zeroes as digits in the decimal number. Hence 0.408 / 1.000 Cancel down the decimal point 0408 / 1000 Drop the trivial zero to the left of 408 Hence 408/1000 Cancel down by '4' 102/ 250 Cancel down by '2' 51/125 This will not cancel down any further as there are no common factors between '51' and '125'. Hence 0.408 = 51/125
