उत्तर

The given A.P. is 5, 8, 11, 14,......

Here, a = 5, d = 8 – 5 = 3, tn = 68

Since tn = a + (n – 1)d,

68 = 5 + (n – 1)(3)

∴ 68 = 5 + 3n – 3

∴ 68 = 2 + 3n

∴ 66 = 3n

∴ n = `66/3`

∴ n = 22

Decide whether 301 is term of given sequence 5, 11, 17, 23,.....

Activity :-  Here, d = `square`, therefore this sequence is an A.P.

a = 5, d = `square`

Let nth term of this A.P. be 301.

tn = a + (n – 1) `square`

301 = 5 + (n – 1) × `square`

301 = 6n – 1

n = `302/6` = `square`

But n is not positive integer.

Therefore, 301 is `square` the term of sequence 5, 11, 17, 23,......
