Answers
fourth term from the last of the AP 3,8,13...........83 is ________.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
14th term from the last is 68.
✰ AP is given as 3,8,13,........83.
✰ we need to find the 4th term from the last.
common difference = 8-3 = 5
= 13-8 =5
so the common difference is 5.
First term = 3
last term = 83
Now ,
we know that an = a + (n -1 )d
➩ 83 = 3 + (n - 1)5
➩ 83 - 3 = (n -1)5
➩ 80/5 = (n -1)
➩ 16 = (n -1)
➩ 16 +1 = n
➩ n = 17.
so the 4th term from the last is 14th term
14th term = a + 13d
14th term = 3 + 13× 5
14th term = 3+65
14th term = 68

Step-by-step explanation:
Given -
- AP = 3, 8, 13, ......... 83
To Find -
- 4th term of the AP from the end
As we know that :-
- an = a + (n - 1)d
here,
a = 3
d = 8-3 = 5
an = 83
Then,
» 83 = 3 + (n - 1)5
» 83 - 3 = (n - 1)5
» 80 = (n - 1)5
» n - 1 = 80/5
» n - 1 = 16
» n = 16 + 1
- » n = 17
So,
The 4th term from the end is 14th term
- 14th term = a + 13d
» 3 + 13(5)
» 3 + 65
- » 68
Hence,
4th term of the AP from the end is 68.
