MCQ
$8^{th}$ term of the series $2\sqrt 2 + \sqrt 2 + 0 + .....$ will be
  • $ - 5\sqrt 2 $
  • B
    $5\sqrt 2 $
  • C
    $10\sqrt 2 $
  • D
    $ - 10\sqrt 2 $

Answer

Correct option: A.
$ - 5\sqrt 2 $
a
(a) Obviously the given series $2\sqrt 2 + \sqrt 2 + 0 + .......$ is an $A.P.$

Here $a = 2\sqrt 2 ,\;d = - \sqrt 2 $.

Hence ${8^{th}}$ term of the series

$ = 2\sqrt 2 + (8 - 1)( - \sqrt 2 ) = - 5\sqrt 2 $.
