Answer:

Their difference is

T₃₀  -    T₂₀       = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

given ap is -5, -3, -1, .........

Here, a = -5, d = -5 - (-3) = -2

                  Tₙ = a + (n-1) d -----------(1)

Using (1),         T₂₀ = -5 + (20 -1 ) (-2)

                              = -5 + 19 (-2)

                                = -5 - 38

                               = -43

                     T₂₀ = -43

Using (1),         T₃₀ = -5 + (30 -1 ) (-2)

                               = -5 + 29 (-2)

                               = -5 - 58

                              = -63

                     T₃₀ = -63

Now, T₃₀  -    T₂₀    =    -63 - (-43)

                                = -63 + 43

                            T₃₀  -    T₂₀       = -20
