Answer:
[tex]a_{37}=249[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A sequence that has a common difference is an arithmetic sequence:
[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]
where aₙ is the nth term, n is the index, and d is the common difference.
In your question:
Plug those into the formula:
[tex]a_{37}=-39+(37-1)8[/tex]
Then solve:
[tex]a_{37}=-39+(36)8\\a_{37}=-39+288\\a_{37}=249[/tex]
