QuestionFind a formula for the $n^{\text{th}}$ term $a_{n}$ of the sequence $16, 7, -2, \ldots$.

Studdy Solution
implify the formula to get the explicit formula for the $n^{\text {th }}$ term of the sequence.
$$a_{n} =16 -9(n-1)$$$$a_{n} =16 -9n +9$$$$a_{n} =25 -9n$$The explicit formula for the $n^{\text {th }}$ term of the sequence $16,7,-2, \ldots$ is $a_{n} =25 -9n$.
