Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
In an <u><em>Arithmetic Sequence</em></u> the difference between one term and the next is a constant, and this constant is called the common difference (d)
In this problem we have the ordered pairs
Let
Find the difference between one term and the next
The difference between one term and the next is a constant
This constant is the common difference
so
The sequence graphed is an Arithmetic Sequence
therefore
The first term is
The common difference is equal to
Given:
The sequence is 25, 20, 15, 10, 5.
To find:
The ninth term of the given sequence.
Solution:
We have,
25, 20, 15, 10, 5
It is an AP because the difference between two consecutive terms are same.
Here,
First term (a) = 25
Common difference (d) = 20-25
= -5
The nth terms of an AP is
Where, a is the first term and d is the common difference.
Putting a=25, n=9 and d=-5 to get the 9th term.
Therefore, the ninth term of the given sequence is -15.
