5 0

Answer:

let the first term of an A.P. is 'a' and common difference 'd'

∴ 8th term = sum of the first 8 terms

a8 = S

a + 7d = 8/2(2a + (8 - 1)d)

a + 7d = 8/2(2a + 7d)

2a + 14d = 16a + 56d

16a + 56d - (2a + 14d) = 0

14a + 52d = 0

divide eq. by 14 we get  ,

a + 3d = 0

and a + 3d = a4  = 0

Please help me with this question. I am very confused.
Oksanka [162]
I think u do the ones in the parenthesis first bc of PEMDAS since it's both negative it become positive and u can cross out both the 2's and that leaves u with 1/7 and then u just times 1/7 with 8 and then u get 8/7

hoped this helped! :)
