Question

Find the 19th term of the following A.P.:

7, 13, 19, 25, ...

Sum

Solution

The sequence given is 7, 13, 19, 25, ....

Here,

First term = a = t1 = 7, t2 = 13, t3 = 19, t4 = 25, ....

Common difference = d = t2 − t1

= 13 – 7

= 6

To find the 19th term, we have to use the formula, i.e.,

tn = a + (n − 1)d

∴ t19 = 7 + (19 − 1) × 6 ...(On substituting value)

∴ t19 = 7 + 18 × 6

∴ t19 = 7 + 108

∴ t19 = 115

Hence, the 19th term of the progression is 115.
