Answer

$225$

Work Step by Step

The $n^{th}$ term $a_{n}$ of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula: $a_{n} =a_{1} + (n-1) d$ Where: $d$ = common difference $a_{1}$ = first term $n$ = term number The common difference $d$ of the arithmetic sequence is: $d=113-109=4$ The given arithmetic sequence has $d=4$ $a_{1}=101$ $n=32$ Use the given values and the formula above to find the $32^{\text{nd}}$ term: $a_{32}= 101+(32-1) 4$ $a_{32} = 101+ 4(31)$ $a_{32}=225$
