Question 3 (ii)
Write the first three terms of the AP’s, when a and d are as given below:
a = -5, d = - 3

Open in App

Solution

Given that,
First term (a) = - 5 and common difference (d) = - 3
nth term of an AP_, $T_{n}$ = a + (n – 1) d
$∴$ Second term of the AP, $T_{2} = a + d = - 5 - 3 = - 8$
Third term of the AP, $T_{3} = a + 2 d = - 5 + 2 (- 3)$
= - 5 - 6 = -11
