WebMar 23, 2024 · Since we know that the sum of the first n terms of an A.P. is S n = n 2 [ 2 a + ( n − 1) d] where ‘a’ is the first term and ‘d’ is common difference. We have n=10 and S n = − 150 . ⇒ − 150 = 10 2 [ 2 a + ( 10 − 1) d] ⇒ − 150 = 5 [ 2 a + 9 d] ⇒ − 150 5 = 2 a + 9 d ⇒ − 30 = 2 a + 9 d.....
