उत्तर

The given AP is 3,7,11,15,......

Here, a = 3and d = 7 - 3 = 4
Let the nth term of the given AP be 184. Then,

`a_n = 184`

⇒ 3+ (n-1) × 4 = 184                           [a= a+ (n-1) d]

⇒ 4n - 1 = 184

⇒4n=185

⇒`n=185/4 = 46 1/4`

But, the number of terms cannot be a fraction.
Hence, 184 is not a term of the given aazzzAP.
