22 is the 26th term of the arithmetic progression - 103 , - 98 , - 93 , . . . .
Given :
The arithmetic progression - 103 , - 98 , - 93 , . . . .
To find :
Which term of arithmetic progression is 22
Concept :
If in an arithmetic progression
First term = a
Common difference = d
Then nth term of the AP
= a + ( n - 1 )d
Solution :
Step 1 of 3 :
Write down the given progression
Here the given arithmetic progression is
- 103 , - 98 , - 93 , . . . .
Step 2 of 3 :
Write down first term and common difference
First term = a = - 103
Common Difference = d = - 98 + 103 = 5
Step 3 of 3 :
Find the number of terms
Let number of terms in the AP = n
Then nth term of the AP = 22
a + ( n - 1 )d = 21
⇒ - 103 + ( n - 1 ) × 5 = 22
⇒ - 103 + 5n - 5 = 22
⇒ 5n - 108 = 22
⇒ 5n = 22 + 108
⇒ 5n = 130
⇒ n = 130/5
⇒ n = 26
Hence 22 is the 26th term of the arithmetic progression - 103 , - 98 , - 93 , . . . .
