Answer: 272

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a1=11

a2=20

a3=29

Formula for sequence=

an=a1+(n-1)d

an = nth term

a1= first term

n= nth position

d= common difference

We are looking for the 30th term,so our n=30

d= a2-a1

d= 20-11

d= 9

Using the formula

an= a1+(n-1)d

a30= 11+(30-1)9

a30= 11+(29)9

a30= 11+(29×9)

a30= 11+261

a30= 272

Therefore, the 30th term is 272
