Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
the first term of AP is 3 and the last term is 17,if the sum of all yerms is 150 .
To find:-
what is the 5th term
Solution:-
First term of the AP=(a)=3
Last term of the AP=(l or an)=17
Sum of all terms =(Sn)=150
we know that ,If the first term and last term is given then the sum of n terms =Sn=n(a+l)/2
=>150=n(3+17)/2
=>150=n(20)/2
=>150=10n
=>10n=150
=>n=150/10
=>n=15
Number of terms in the AP=15
We know that an=a+(n-1)d
=>17=3+(15-1)d
=>17+3+14d
=>17-3=14d
=>14=14d
=>14d=14
=>d=14/14
=>d=1
Common difference=(d)=1
5th term =a+4d
=>a5=3+4(1)
=>a5=3+4
=>a5=7
Answer:-
Fifth term of the AP =7
