Answers
Answer:
A) 6
B) 60
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 24 divided by 4 = 6
B) 10 * 6 =60
SOLUTION
GIVEN
The difference between 3rd term and 7th term of an arithmetic sequence is 24
a) The common difference
b) The difference between 10th term and 20th term of this sequence
EVALUATION
Let first term = a
Common Difference = d
By the given condition
( a + 6d ) - ( a + 2d ) = 24
⇒ 4d = 24
⇒ d = 6
a) The common difference = 6
b) The difference between 10th term and 20th term of this sequence
= ( a + 19d ) - ( a + 9d )
= 10d
= 10 × 6
= 60
