In an AP, (a_{15}=a_5+50) and (a_5=24). What is (a_{31})?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 154

In an AP, \(a_{15}-a_5=(15-5)d=10d\). Since \(a_{15}=a_5+50\), we get \(10d=50\), so \(d=5\). Now, \(a_{31}=a_5+(31-5)d=24+26\times5=154\). Hence, 154 is correct. Although 158 is close, it does not follow from the given common difference \(d=5\). Exam tip: When comparing two terms, use the difference between their term numbers.
