Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the “n”th term of the arithmetic progression is given by a+(n−1)d
Given that the 10 times the 10th term is equal to 15 times the 15th term
Therefore, 10(10th term) = =15(15th term)
⟹ 10(a+(10−1)d)=15(a+(15−1)d)
⟹ 10(a+9d)=15(a+14d)
⟹ 10a+90d=15a+210d
⟹ 15a−10a=90d−210d
⟹ 5a=−120d
⟹ a=−24d ------(1)
The 25th term is a+(25−1)d=a+24d=−24d+24d=0
Therefore, the 25th term of the A.P. is zero.
