Answer:
Here, we have to find 14th term.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, 5th term is 11 =
.... a+4d = 11 →_→ (equation 1)
AND,
9th term =
a+8d = 7 (equation 2)
Equation (2)—Equation (1) =
a+8d—(a+4d) = 7—11
a+8d—a—4d = —4
4 d = —4
d = —4/4
d = —1
PUTTING THE VALUE OF D IN Equation (1).
a + 4d = 11
a +4×(—1) = 11
a +(—4) = 11
a = 11+4
a = 15
Thus, the first term of the A.P is 15 and the common difference of the A.P is (—1).
Formula to find the nth term of the A. P = a+(n—1)×d
Then, it's 14th term = a+(14—1)×d
= a + 13d [Equation 3]
PUTTING THE value of a and d in the Equation 3.
15+13×(—1)
= 15—13
= 2
Hence, the 14th term of the A. P. is 2.
