Write an expression to describe the sequence below, and then find the 72nd term. Use n to represent the position of a term in the sequence, where n = 1 for the first term.

Question

78, 79, 80, 81,

Answer 1

The sequence can be described by the expression n + 77.

To find the 72nd term, we substitute n = 72 into the expression:
72 + 77 = 149.

The 72nd term is 149.
