Question

Find the 9th and pth terms of the A.p. 2, 5 , 8..
​

Answer 1

Answer: a) 9th term = 26

b) pth term = 3p - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

9th term = a + (9-1) d

a - first term = 2

d - common difference = 3

9th term = 2 + 8*3

= 2+24

= 26.

Pth term = 2 + (p-1)*3

= 2 + 3p - 3

= 3p - 1
