Question

find second and third term of an a.p. whose first term is –3 and common difference is –3.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first term=-3

third term=-9

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first term of an ap be a1 = -3

let the common difference be d = -3

let 2nd term of an ap = a2

let 3rd term of an ap = a3

a2 = a1 + d

a2 = -3 + (-3)

a2 = -6

a3 = a1 + 2d

a3 = -3 + 2(-3)

a3 = -3 - 6

a3 = -9

so the second term of an ap is -6

so the second term of an ap is -6third term of an ap is -9
