Answer:
10th term,please make Brainliest
Step-by-step explanation:
Here a1=24,a2=21
Common difference d=a2−a1=21−24=−3
⇒an=a1+(n−1)d (nth term formula)
We first find the value of n for which the value of n is zero
The next integer value of that n will be the term of first negative number
⇒an=a1+(n−1)d
⇒0=24+(n−1)(−3)
⇒−24=(n−1)−3
⇒8=n−1
⇒n=9
Hence, 10th term will be the first negative term of given AP
