What is the ninth term in the following sequence 11, 17, 23, 29,.. a 47 b53c 59d65
The given sequence is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 6 (as each term is obtained by adding 6 to the previous term).
To find the ninth term, we can use the formula:
nth term = a + (n-1)d
where a is the first term, d is the common difference, and n is the term number we want to find.
Plugging in the given values, we get:
9th term = 11 + (9-1)6
= 11 + 48
= 59
Therefore, the ninth term in the sequence 11, 17, 23, 29,.. is 59. Answer: c 59.
