12, 16, 20, 24,...... Find 25th term of this A.P.
Advertisements
Solution
The given A.P. is 12, 16, 20, 24,......
Here, a = 12, d = 16 – 12 = 4
Since tn = a + (n – 1)d
t25 = 12 + (25 – 1)(4)
= 12 + 24(4)
= 12 + 96
= 108
∴ 25th term of the given A.P. is 108.

How many two-digit numbers are divisible by 5?
Activity :- Two-digit numbers divisible by 5 are, 10, 15, 20, ......, 95.
Here, d = 5, therefore this sequence is an A.P.
Here, a = 10, d = 5, tn = 95, n = ?
tn = a + (n – 1) `square`
`square` = 10 + (n – 1) × 5
`square` = (n – 1) × 5
`square` = (n – 1)
Therefore n = `square`
There are `square` two-digit numbers divisible by 5.
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,......
