Question

Consider the arithmetic sequence 13, 24, 35, ....

Answer 1

Answer:  27

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence : 13, 24, 35, ....

Here, first term : a= 13

Common difference: d=24-13 =11

The nth term of arithmetic sequence is given by :-

$a_n=a+(n-1)d$

It is given that the nth term is 299, so put $a_n=299, a=13 ; d=11$

$299=13+(n-1)11$

Subtract 13 from both sides , we get

$286=(n-1)11$

Divide both sides by 11, we get

$26=n-1$

Add 1 on both sides , we get

$n=27$

Hence, the value of n= 27
