Answer:
the 73rd term of the arithmetic sequence is -964.
Step-by-step explanation:
The common difference in this arithmetic sequence is 13. This is obtained by subtracting 28 from 41. The first term is a(1) = -28.
The arithmetic sequence formula is a(n) = a(1) + d(n - 1), where d is the common difference and -28 the first term.
Then, in this case, a(n) = -28 - 13(n - 1), and
a(73) = -28 - 13(73 - 1) = -964
