Q 13 Find the missing term in the series are
43, 45, 50, -, 69,83
Answers
Answer:
it is not an Arithmetic Progression or AP
Answer:
The missing term in the series 43, 45, 50, -, 69, and 83 is 58.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assumption,
Let the value of unknown be 'x'.
Given,
The series 43, 45, 50, -, 69,83
To find,
The value of unknown 'x'.
Calculation,
In the series 43, 45, 50, -, 69, and 83 we try to calculate the difference between the consecutive numbers.
i.e.
45 - 43 = 2
50 - 45 = 5
x - 50 = y (let)
69 - x = z (let)
83 - 69 = 14
We can observe that the difference is in A.P
i.e. 2, 5, y, z, 14 are in A.P
So y = 5 + (5 - 2)
⇒ y = 8
So, the value of x is 50 + 8 = 58
Verification,
We try to find the value of 'z' by using the value 'x' and find if the value 'z' is in A.P or not.
So 69 - x = z
⇒ 69 - 58 = 11 = z
Hence, 2, 5, 8, 11, and 14 are A.P as we assumed
Therefore, the missing term in the series 43, 45, 50, -, 69, and 83 is 58.
