Question

In the given A.P -1 ,2 ,5 ,8.... Find the 96th term​

Answer 1

Answer:

The 96th term of the A.P is 284.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

A.P = (-1), 2, 5, 8,.......

Now,

a = (-1)

d = a2 - a1

= 2 - (-1)

= 2 + 1

= 3

Now,

n = 96

We know that,

nth term of an A.P is given by the formula,

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

So,

a(96th) = (-1) + (96 - 1)(3)

a(96th) = (-1) + (95)(3)

a(96th) = (-1) + 285

a(96th) = 284

Hence,

The 96th term of the A.P is 284.

Hope it helped and believing you understood it........All the best
