उत्तर
tn = 2n – 5 ...[Given]
∴ t1 = 2(1) – 5
= 2 – 5
= –3
t2 = 2(2) – 5
= 4 – 5
= –1
t3 = 2(3) – 5
= 6 – 5
= 1
t4 = 2(4) – 5
= 8 – 5
= 3
t5 = 2(5) – 5
= 10 – 5
= 5
∴ The first five terms of A.P. are –3, –1, 1, 3, 5.

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.
