Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
114 , 109 , 104 , ... is in A.P
First term = a = 114
Common difference = a2 - a1
d = 109 - 114
d = -5
Let n th term of A.P = 0
a + ( n - 1 )d = 0
114 + ( n - 1 ) ( -5 ) = 0
114 - 5n + 5 = 0
119 - 5n = 0
-5n = - 119
n = 119/5
n = 23.8
Therefore ,
24 th term of given A. P is first
negative number .
a24 = a + 23d
= 114 + 23( - 5 )
= 114 - 115
= -1 ( negative number )
I hope this helps you.
