Answer

1st term: 3. 2nd term: 3. 3rd term: 3. 4th term: 3. 100th term: 3.

Work Step by Step

To find the nth term of sequence, plug in a number for n. So, for the first term, plug in 1 for n, for the second term, plug in 2 for n, and so on. In this case the formula for the nth term is $a_{n}$ = 3. So every term, no matter what number of the sequence will be 3.
