Answer:

149

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms in the sequence.

5 - 2 = 8 - 5 = 11 - 8 = 14 - 11 = 3

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 2 and d = 3 , thus

a₅₀ = 2 + (49 × 3) = 2 + 147 = 149
