The sum of the first 25 terms of an A.P. is 1700, while its common difference is 6. What is the 31st term of the10.A.P.?

Answer»

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sₙ = n/2[2A + (n-1)d]

1700 = 25/2[2a + 24d]

=> 2a + 24d = 1700 * 2/25

=> 2a + 24d = 136

=> 2a + 24*6 = 136  

=> 2a = 136 - 144

=> 2a = -8

=> a = -4.

nth TERM of AP is given by tₙ = a + (n-1)d

31st term is t₃₁ = -4 + (31 - 1)6 = - 4 + 180 = 176.
