The 8th term of an AP is 17 and its 14th term is 29. The common difference of the AP is (a) 3 (b) 2 (c) 5 (d) -2 |
Answer» The correct option is (b) 2. Explanation: T8 = a + 7d = 17 ...(i) T14 = a + 13d = 29 ...(ii) On subtracting (i) from (ii), we get: ⇒ 6d = 12 ⇒ d = 12/6 ⇒ d = 2 Hence, the common difference is 2. |
