if each term of an ap is increased by the same constant as the resulting sequence an ap if yes find them system
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of the resulting A.P is (a + k) + (n -1)d.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that each term of an A.P is increased by constant k.
Firstly, let the original arithmetic progression be;
a, (a + d), (a + 2d), (a + 3d),..........., and so on.
Here, first term = a
Common difference = 2nd term - 1st term
= a + d - a = d
Now, it is said that each term of an A.P is increased by constant k, so the resulting A.P. series will be;
(a + k), (a + k + d), (a + k + 2d), (a + k + 3d),.........., and so on.
Here, First term = (a + k)
common difference = (a + k + d) - (a + k)
= a + k + d - a - k = d
As we know that the nth term of an A.P. is given by the following formula;
So, nth term of the resulting A.P is = (a + k) + (n -1)d
