The given sequence is 20, 17, 14, ..............
The nth term of this sequence is given by t
n
=a+(n−1)d.
To find the first negative term, t
n
should be less than 0.
We have 'a' = 20, 'd' = -3
a+(n−1)d<0
⟹20+(n−1)(−3)<0
⟹20+3−3n<0
⟹23−3n<0
⟹3n>23orn>

.
The next natural number greater than 7.6 is 8.
Hence, the 8th term is the first negative number
