a = 3d
d = 8
so, a=24 and the AP is
24,32,40,...
The first term of an AP is equal to thrice the common difference. What is the sixth term of the AP,if the common difference is 8

from sir steve work
remeber that 6th term is
6th term=a+5d
=24+5*8
=64
remeber that 6th term is
6th term=a+5d
=24+5*8
=64
a = 3d
d = 8
a = 3(8)
a = 24
Therefore, the sixth term will be:
Tn = a+(n-1)d
a=24; d=8; n=6
T6 = 24+(6-1)8
T6 = 24+(5)8
T6 = 24+(5x8)
T6 = 24+40
T6 = 64
d = 8
a = 3(8)
a = 24
Therefore, the sixth term will be:
Tn = a+(n-1)d
a=24; d=8; n=6
T6 = 24+(6-1)8
T6 = 24+(5)8
T6 = 24+(5x8)
T6 = 24+40
T6 = 64
