Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:D) 35, 38, 41, 44, 47, 50,... Step-by-step explanation:The general term of an arithmetic sequence is [tex]t_n=32+3n[/tex], where n ∈N and n ≥ 1.When n=1, [tex]t_1=32+3(1)=35[/tex]When n=2, [tex]t_2=32+3(2)=38[/tex]When n=3, [tex]t_3=32+3(3)=41[/tex]When n=4, [tex]t_4=32+3(4)=44[/tex]When n=5, [tex]t_5=32+3(5)=47[/tex]When n=6, [tex]t_6=32+3(6)=50[/tex]Hence the sequence is 35, 38, 41, 44, 47, 50,... The correct answer is D
