Find the 9th term of the arithmetic sequence with 9=10 and d= - ½

The 9th term of this arithmetic sequence is 6.

In an Arithmetic Progression (AP), the nth term is given by the formula-

a9 = a + (n-1)d

where a = first term of the AP

d = common difference

Here, we are given that a= 10 and d = - ½

Let the 9th term of the AP be a9

Therefore, according to the formula for finding the nth term of an AP, we get-

a9 = a + (9-1)d

a9 = a + 8d

Substituting the values of a and d given in the question-

a9 = 10 + 8(-1/2)

a9 = 10 - 4

a9 = 6

Thus, the 9th term of the arithmetic sequence is 6.
