Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Arithmetic sequence:</h3>
6th term is 14 ⇒
a + (6 - 1)d = 14
a + 5d = 14 --------------(I)
14th term is 6 ⇒
a + (14-1)d = 6
a + 13d = 6 ----------------(II)
Subtract equation (II) from equation(I)
(I) a + 5d = 14
(II) a + 13d = 6
<u>- - -</u>
-8d = 8
d = 8 ÷(-8)
Plugin d = -1 in equation (I)
a + 5(-1) = 14
a -5 = 14
a = 14 + 5
20th term:
= 19 - 19
