प्रश्न
Which term of the A.P. 105, 101, 97, ........ is the first negative term?
उत्तर
Here a = 105 and d = 101 – 105 = – 4
Let an be the first negative term.
`\implies` an < 0
`\implies` a + (n – 1)d < 0
`\implies` 105 + (n – 1)(– 4)<0
`\implies` 105 – 4n + 4 <0
`\implies` 109 – 4n < 0
`\implies` 109 < 4n
`\implies` 27.25 < n
The value of n = 28.
Therefore 28th term is the first negative term of the given A.P.
