Fill in the blanks in the following table, given that a is the first term, d the common difference and an the nth term of the AP:
Choose the correct choice in the following and justify :
30th term of the AP: 10, 7, 4, . . . , is
(A) 97 (B) 77 (C) –77 (D) – 87
Choose the correct choice in the following and justify :
30th term of the AP: 10, 7, 4, . . . , is
11th term of the A.P. is
Which term of the AP : 3, 8, 13, 18, . . . ,is 78?
The given A. P. is 3, 8, 13, 18, .....
Here, a = 3
d = 8 - 3 = 5
Let the nth term f=of the A. P. be 78
Then, an = a + (n - 1)d
78 = 3 + (n -1) (5)
5(n - 1) = 78 - 3
5 (n - 1) = 75
n - 1 = 15
n = 15 + 1
n = 16
Hence, 16th term of the A .P. is 78.
