Question 1
In an AP, if d = - 4 , n = 7 and a_n = 4, then a is equal to

A) 6
B) 7
C) 20
D) 28

Open in App

Solution

$I n a n A P, a_{n} = a + (n - 1) d$
$\Rightarrow 4 = a + (7 - 1) (- 4) [b y g i v e n c o n d i t i o n s]$
$\Rightarrow 4 = a + 6 (- 4)$
$\Rightarrow 4 + 24 = a$
$∴ a = 28$

a_{n} = 20

a n d S_{n}

a_{n} = 20

a n d S_{n}

a_{n} = \sqrt{7 + \sqrt{7 + \sqrt{7 + \dots}}}

n

a_{n} < 4, \forall n \geq 1

a_{n} < 4

a_{n + 1} < 4
