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
Find the number of terms in each of the following APs :
7, 13, 19, . . . , 205
7, 13, 19, . . . , 205
Here, a = 7
d = 13 - 7 = 6
And, an = 205
Let the number of terms be n.
Then, an = 205
a + ( n - 1) d = 205
7 + ( n - 1)6 = 205
6(n - 1) = 205 - 7
6(n - 1) = 198
n - 1 = 33
n = 33 + 1
n = 34
Hence, the number of terms of the given A .P., is 34.
