Question:-
If 9th term is 75 and 21st term is 183 of an A.P then find its t81.
Answer:-
Given,
➦ 9th term is 75
➦ 21st term is 183
Now,
➣ tn = a + ( n - 1 ) d
➣ t 9 = a + ( 9 - 1 ) d
➣ 75 = a + 8d .......... ( 1 )
And,
➣ tn = a + ( n - 1 ) d
➣ t 21 = a + ( 21 - 1 ) d
➣ 183 = a + 20d .......... ( 2 )
Then,
Subtract ( 1 ) from ( 2 )
a + 20d = 183 .......... ( 2 )
-a ±8d = - 75 .......... ( 1 )
12d = 108
d = 108/12
Substitute d in equation ( 1 ):-
➣ a + 8(9) = 75
➣ a + 72 = 75
➣ a = 75 - 72
➣
Now,
➣ t 81 = 3 + ( 81 - 1 ) 9
➣ t 81 = 3 + 80(9)
➣ t 81 = 3 + 720
➣ t 81 = 723
∴ 81th term is 723.
Verification:-
➦ a + 20d = 183
➦ 3 + 20(9) = 183
➦ 3 + 180 = 183
➦ 183 = 183

-a ±8d = - 75 .......... ( 1 )
12d = 108
d = 108/12
\boxed{ \: d \: = \: 9 \: }
d=9
Substitute d in equation ( 1 ):-
➣ a + 8(9) = 75
➣ a + 72 = 75
➣ a = 75 - 72
➣ \boxed{ \: a \: = \: 3 \: }
a=3
Now,
➣ t 81 = 3 + ( 81 - 1 ) 9
➣ t 81 = 3 + 80(9)
➣ t 81 = 3 + 720
➣ t 81 = 723
∴ 81th term is 723.
Verification:-
➦ a + 20d = 183
➦ 3 + 20(9) = 183
➦ 3 + 180 = 183
➦ 183 = 183
