Which term of AP 72,68,64,60,… is 0?

Advertisements

उत्तर

In the given AP, first term, a = 72 and common difference, d =
(68-72)  = - 4.

Let its nth   term be 0.

Then,  Tn = 0

⇒ a +  (n-1) d = 0

⇒ 72 + (n-1) × (-4) = 0

⇒ 76- 4n = 0

⇒ 4n =76 

⇒n=19 

Hence, the 19th  term of the given AP is 0.
