In an A.P, if $d=7$, what is the value of $t_{17}−t_2=?$
Given: In an A.P, if $d=7$.
To do: To find the value of $t_{17}-t_2$.
Solution:
Here given, common difference $d=7$
As known,
$n^{th}$ term $t_n=a+( n-1)d$
$\Rightarrow t_{17}=a+( 17-1)d=a+16d$
Similarly,
$t_2=a+( 2-1)d=a+d$
$\therefore t_{17}-t_2$
$=a+16d-a-d$
$=15d$
$=15\times7$
$=105$
Hence, $t_{17}-t_2=105$
