Which term of the A.P.:1, 4, 7, ... is 25?
Answers
Answer:
the ninth term of the will be 25
Step-by-step explanation:
using the formula of general term of an ap
an=a+(n-1)d
the value of an =25
a=1
d=3
now obtain values of n
answer :- n=9
Given,
The AP series is = 1,4,7..... so on.
To find,
The number of term in the given AP which has a value of 25.
Solution,
Let, the the term is nth term.
(Assume, n as a variable to do the further mathematical calculations.)
Now, we have to calculate the value of the nth term with the following mathematical formula.
nth term = a+(n-1)d
Here,
a = first term of AP
n = number position of the term
d = common difference
Now,
a = 1
n = ?
d = second term - first term = 4-1 = 3
By putting the values we get that,
25 = 1+(n-1)×3
25 = 1+3n-3
3n-2 = 25
3n = 27
n = 9
Hence, 25 is the 9th term of the given AP.
