Q1(i):
Fill in the blanks in the following table, given that $a$ is the first term, $d$ the common difference and $a_n$ the $n$th term of the AP:
(i) $a=7, d=3, n=8, a_n=...$
Solution :
Given:
- First term of the Arithmetic Progression ($a$) = $7$
- Common difference ($d$) = $3$
- Number of terms ($n$) = $8$
To find:
- The $n$th term of the Arithmetic Progression ($a_n$)
Step 1: Identifying the relevant formula
For any Arithmetic Progression (AP), the $n$th term ($a_n$) is calculated using the standard formula:
$a_n = a + (n - 1)d$
[Where $a$ is the first term, $n$ is the position of the term, and $d$ is the common difference between consecutive terms.]
Step 2: Substituting the given values into the formula
Substitute $a = 7$, $d = 3$, and $n = 8$ into the formula:
$a_8 = 7 + (8 - 1) \times 3$
Step 3: Performing the arithmetic operations
Following the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):
First, solve the expression within the parentheses:
$a_8 = 7 + (7) \times 3$
[Since $8 - 1 = 7$]
Next, perform the multiplication:
$a_8 = 7 + 21$
[Since $7 \times 3 = 21$]
Finally, perform the addition:
$a_8 = 28$
Final Answer: The value of the 8th term ($a_n$) is 28.
