1)  

 Find the common difference and 11th term of the A.P ,117, 112, 107,102.... .

Difference = Answer: -5

11th term Answer: 67


SOLUTION 1 :

 Given A.P. is 117,112,107,102....

Here a = 117

d = 112 - 117

d = -5

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 11th term put n = 11

t11 = 117 + (11-1)-5

       = 117 + (10x -5) 

      = 117-50 = 67

Common difference d = -5

11th term t11 = 67

 



2)  

 Find the common difference and 11th term of the A.P ,138, 136, 134,132.... .

Difference = Answer: -2

11th term Answer: 118


SOLUTION 1 :

 Given A.P. is 138,136,134,132....

Here a = 138

d = 136 - 138

d = -2

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 11th term put n = 11

t11 = 138 + (11-1)-2

       = 138 + (10x -2) 

      = 138-20 = 118

Common difference d = -2

11th term t11 = 118

 



3)  

 Find the common difference and 20th term of the A.P ,137, 133, 129,125.... .

SOLUTION 1 :

 Given A.P. is 137,133,129,125....

Here a = 137

d = 133 - 137

d = -4

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 20th term put n = 20

t20 = 137 + (20-1)-4

       = 137 + (19x -4) 

      = 137-76 = 61

Here a = 124

d = 120 - 124

d = -4

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 13th term put n = 13

t13 = 124 + (13-1)-4

       = 124 + (12x -4) 

      = 124-48 = 76

Common difference d = -4

13th term t13 = 76

 



5)  

 Find the common difference and 14th term of the A.P ,141, 138, 135,132.... .

SOLUTION 1 :

 Given A.P. is 141,138,135,132....

Here a = 141

d = 138 - 141

d = -3

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 14th term put n = 14

t14 = 141 + (14-1)-3

       = 141 + (13x -3) 

      = 141-39 = 102

Common difference d = -3

14th term t14 = 102

 



6)  

 Find the common difference and 10th term of the A.P ,130, 126, 122,118.... .

Difference = Answer: -4

10th term Answer: 94


SOLUTION 1 :

 Given A.P. is 130,126,122,118....

Here a = 130

d = 126 - 130

d = -4

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 10th term put n = 10

t10 = 130 + (10-1)-4

       = 130 + (9x -4) 

      = 130-36 = 94

Common difference d = -4

10th term t10 = 94

 



7)  

 Find the common difference and 18th term of the A.P ,143, 140, 137,134.... .

SOLUTION 1 :

 Given A.P. is 143,140,137,134....

Here a = 143

d = 140 - 143

d = -3

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 18th term put n = 18

t18 = 143 + (18-1)-3

       = 143 + (17x -3) 

      = 143-51 = 92

Common difference d = -3

18th term t18 = 92

 



8)  

 Find the common difference and 18th term of the A.P ,137, 132, 127,122.... .

Here a = 137

d = 132 - 137

d = -5

tn = a + (n-1)d

For 18th term put n = 18

t18 = 137 + (18-1)-5

       = 137 + (17x -5) 

      = 137-85 = 52

Common difference d = -5

18th term t18 = 52
