check whether 140 is a term of AP - 7 - 4 - 1 , 2
Answers
Answer:
let the last term of an AP be 140
therefore an=140
an=a+(n-1)(d)
140=(-7)+(n-1)(3)
140=(-7)+3n-3
-7-3+3n=140
3n-10=140
3n=150
n=150/3
n=50
therefore we can say that 140 is from of the given arthematic progression

Step-by-step explanation:
let a= -7
d= 3
An= 140
then,
An= a+ (n-1) d
140 = -7 +(n-1) 3
140 +7 =(n-1) 3
147 = (n-1) 3
147/3=n-1
49 = n-1
n= 49+1
n= 50
verification= 140= -7+(n-1)3
140 = -7+(50-1)3
140= -7 + 49×3
140 = -7 + 147
140 = 140
hence , it is verified that 140 is a term of given AP
