Question

A 19 = 548 and a 33 = 968 Find a 27

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of a₂₇ is 788

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁₉ = 548

a₃₃ = 968

Now,

a₁₉ = 548 can be written as

a + 18d = 548 ...(1) and

a₃₃ = 968 can be written as

a + 32d = 968 ...(2)

Now, from equation (2) we get,

a + 32d = 968

a + 18d + 14d = 968

548 + 14d = 968 (.°. a + 18d = 548)

14d = 968 - 548

14d = 420

d = 420 ÷ 14

d = 30

Now, for the value of a put the value of d = 30 in equation (1)

a + 18d = 548

a + 18(30) = 548

a + 540 = 548

a = 548 - 540

a = 8

Now, For a₂₇

a₂₇ = a + 26d

a₂₇ = 8 + 26(30)

a₂₇ = 8 + 780

a₂₇ = 788

Thus, The value of a₂₇ is 788
