Answer:

a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Divide -8 from both sides:

(-8a)/-8 = (24)/-8

a = 24/-8

a = -3

a = -3 is your answer.

Find the eleventh term of the last term of A.P.<br> 27,23,19,.....-65.

myrzilka [38]

The term to term rule is to subtract 4

Term 1 = 27
Term 2 = 27 - 4 = 23
Term 3 = 23 - 4 = 19
Term 4 = 19 - 4 = 15
Term 5 = 15 - 4 = 11
Term 6 = 11 - 4 = 9
Term 7 = 9 - 4 = 5
Term 8 = 5 - 4 = 1
Term 9 = 1 - 4 = -3
Term 10 = -3 - 4 = -7
Term 11 = -7 - 4 = -11

The eleventh term = -11
