➛G I V E N:-
•First term of AP=1
•Common difference of the AP=4
•Sum of the nth term of AP=190
➛T O F I N D O U T :-
•The number of terms in that AP(n)=0
➛S O L U T I O N :-
•Let a= first term
d=common difference
Sn=Sum of nth term of AP
Now we have a=1 ,d=4 and Sn=190
We know that
•Sn=n/2[2a+(n-1)d]
⇢190=n/2[2×1+(n-1)4]
⇢2×190=n[2+4n-4]
⇢380=n[4n-2]
⇢380=4n²-2n
⇢4n²-2n-380=0
⇢2n²-n-190=0
Factorising it by mid term splitting method
⇢2n²-20n+19n-190=0
⇢2n(n-10)+19(n-10)=0
⇢(2n+10)(n-10)=0
⇢2n+10=0 or n-10=0
⇢n=-10/2=-5 or n=10
•But the terms in AP cannot be negative , neglecting -5 , we have n=10
Therefore, there are 10 th terms in the given A•P
