In the arithmetic progression (90,81,72,\ldots), which term is (9)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 10th term

Here, the first term is 90 and the common difference is -9. The general term is \(a_n=90+(n-1)(-9)\). For the term 9, \(90-9(n-1)=9\), so \(n-1=9\) and \(n=10\). Therefore, 9 is the 10th term. The 9th term is 18, so that option is not correct. Exam tip: always use a negative common difference for a decreasing arithmetic progression.
