The video tutorial explains how to find the 100th term in a sequence starting with 15, 9, 3, and -3. The instructor identifies a pattern of subtracting six from each term to get the next. A general formula for the nth term is derived as 15 minus (n-1) times six. The 100th term is calculated using this formula, resulting in -579.

What is the first term of the sequence presented by the instructor?

• -3

• 3

• 9

• 15
