MCQ

उत्तर

33

Explanation:

We know that the nth term of an AP is

an = a + (n – 1)d

Where,

a = first term

an is nth term

d is the common difference

a2 = a + d = 13   ...(1)

a5 = a + 4d = 25  ...(2)

From equation (1) we have,

a = 13 – d

Using this in equation (2), we have

13 – d + 4d = 25

13 + 3d = 25

3d = 12

d = 4

a = 13 – 4 = 9

a7 = a + 6d

= 9 + 6(4)

= 9 + 24

= 33
