The number of terms in an A.P. -3, 3, 9, 15,………..,201 is:1. 352. 343. 324. 33

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 35

Given:

The number of terms in an A.P. -3, 3, 9, 15,………..,201

Formula used:

d = t2 – t1

a + (n – 1)d

where, a = first term, n = last term and d = common difference

Calculation:

a = -3

d = 3 – (-3)

⇒ d = (3 + 3) = 6

nth term = 201

According to the question

⇒ a + (n – 1)d

⇒ -3 + (n – 1) × 6 = 201

⇒ -3 + 6n – 6 = 201

⇒ 6n = 210

⇒ n = 35

∴ Total number of term is 35
