if 3rd ter, and 9th term is 8 in a.p,then find the 11th term
Read Solution (Total 3)
-
- a+2d=8 and 1+8d=8 by calculating these two eqn we get,a=8 and d=0
so a+10*d=8+0=8

- a3=a1+(3-1)d
8=a1+2d.....(1)equ.
a9=a1+(9-1)d
8=a1+8d....(2)equ.
solve (1) and (2) then a1=4 and d=6.
a11=a1+(11-1)d
a11=4+10*6
a11=64. - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(18)
- a+(n-1)d---->formulla
a+(3-1)d=8 => a+2d=8
a+(9-1)d=8 => a+8d=8 => a=8-8d(substituting in a+2d=8)
8-8d+2d=8
d=0
since d=0 all elements in series is 8,8,8,8,8,------
hence the 11th term is 8 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
