Answer :
Given:
The formula for nth term of a sequence is:
[tex]\dfrac{5}{6}+\dfrac{1}{2}n[/tex]
To find:
The 12th term in the given sequence.
Solution:
Consider the formula for nth term of a sequence:
[tex]a_n=\dfrac{5}{6}+\dfrac{1}{2}n[/tex]
Putting [tex]n=12[/tex], we get
[tex]a_{12}=\dfrac{5}{6}+\dfrac{1}{2}{12}[/tex]
[tex]a_{12}=\dfrac{5}{6}+6[/tex]
[tex]a_{12}=\dfrac{5+36}{6}[/tex]
[tex]a_{12}=\dfrac{41}{6}[/tex]
Therefore, the 12th in the given sequence is [tex]\dfrac{41}{6}[/tex].
