Question 1 (vi)
Given that,
A. P is 10.0, 10.5, 11.0, 11.5,
First term(a) = 10.0,
Common difference (d) = Second term – first term
d = 10.5 – 10.0 = 0.5
As we know that, to find nth term in an A.P = a + (n – 1)d
Therefore, 11th term a11 = 10.0 + (11 – 1)0.5
= 10.0 + 10 x 0.5 = 10.0 + 5 =15.0
Hence 11th term of the A. P. is 15.0
