Question
Find t5 if a = 3 and d = –3.
Advertisements
Solution
tn = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t5 = 3 + (5 – 1)(– 3)
= 3 + 4(– 3)
= 3 – 12
= – 9

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`
