Question
Find the term t15 of an A.P. : 4, 9, 14, …………..
Advertisements
Solution
We need to find the 15th term of the A.P., 4, 9, 14
Here, the initial term is, a = 4.
Common difference = 14 - 9 = 9 - 4 = 5
The general term of an A.P is given by the formula,
tn = a + (n - 1)d
t15 = 4 + (15 - 1) × 5
t15 = 4 + 14 × 5
t15 = 4 + 70
t15 = 74

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`

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, ......
