Common difference between the terms is 36
Formula for nth term is [tex]a_n=36n-11[/tex]
27th term is 961
Given :
X, 2X + 11 and 4X - 3 are consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence
To Find:
We need to find the constant difference between the given terms and also find the nth term . Also find the 27th term .
To find the difference , we need to take the difference of consecutive terms
[tex]2x+11-x=x+11\\\\4x-3=(2x+11)= 4x-3-2x-11=2x-14[/tex]
Both the common differences are equal
[tex]x+11=2x-14\\Solve \; for \; x\\Subtract \; x\\11=x-14\\Add \; 14\\x=25[/tex]
First term is 25
second term is 2(25)+11=61
Difference is 61-25=26
Common difference = 36
Use nth term formula is
[tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d\\a=25 (first term )\\d=36\\a_n=25+(n-1)(36)\\a_n=25+36n-36\\a_n=36n-11[/tex]
To find 27th term , replace n with 27
[tex]a_{27}=36(27)-11=961[/tex]
