Der fünfte Term einer arithmetischen Folge ist dreimal so groß wie der zweite Term und der dritte Term ist 10. Finden Sie den 20. Term?

 

Hello Guest!

 

\(\displaystyle a_{1}=a_{1},\ a_{2}=a_{1}+d,\ a_{3}=a_{1}+2d,\ a_{4}=a_{1}+3d, a_5=a_1+4d\dots \)

\({\displaystyle a_{i}=a_{1}+(i-1)\cdot d\quad } \ (explicit\ formula,\ explizite\ Formel)\)

 

\(a_5=(a_1+d)\cdot 3=a_1+(5-1)\cdot d\ (specification\ 1 )\\ a_3=a_1+(3-1)\cdot d=10\ (specification\ 2 )\)

 

\(3a_1+3d=a_1+4d\\ d=2a_1\)

\(a_1+2d=10\\ d=\dfrac{10-a_1}{2}\)

\(2a_1=\dfrac{10-a_1}{2}\\ 4a_1=10-a_1\)

\(\large a_1=2\)

\( d=\dfrac{10-a_1}{2}\\ d=\dfrac{10-2}{2}\\ \)

\(\large d=4\)

\(a_{i}=a_{1}+(i-1)\cdot d\\ a_{20}=2+(20-1)\cdot 4\\\)

\(\large a_{20}=78\)
