उत्तर
Here a = t1 = first term = – 12, t2 = – 5,
Common difference = d = t2 – t1
d = – 5 – (– 12)
= – 5 + 12
∴ d = 7
We know that, tn = a + (n – 1)d
Here, n = 20, a = – 12, d = 7
∴ t20 = – 12 + (20 – 1)7
= – 12 + 133
t20 = 121
∴ 20th term of the progression is 121.

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,......
