Question

In an A.P. the common difference (d) is 6 and seventh term is 36. Can we write such an A.P. ?

Answer 1

Yes, we can write the above said A.P. 

In the given A.P. (d) = 6 

Seventh term a₇ = 36 

a₇ = a + 6d = 36 

⇒ a + 6 (6) = 36 

∴ a = 36 – 36 = 0 

∴ In the given progression a = 0 and d = 6 then it is 0, 6, 12, 18, …………
