Answer:

a₁₅ = 86x - 68

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 2x + 2

d = a₂ - a₁ = 8x - 3 - 2x - 2 = 6x - 5 , then

a₁₅ = 2x + 2 + 14(6x - 5)

     = 2x + 2 + 84x - 70

     = 86x - 68
