Answer
In the A.P. 5, 15, 25, ……., a = 5 and d = 15 - 5 = 10.
Let nth term be 130 more than 31st term.
∴ an = 130 + a31
⇒ a + (n - 1)d = 130 + a + (31 - 1)d
⇒ 5 + (n - 1)10 = 130 + 5 + 30(10)
⇒ 5 + 10n - 10 = 135 + 300
⇒ 10n - 5 = 435
⇒ 10n = 440
⇒ n = 44.
Hence, 44th term of the A.P. will be 130 more than its 31st term .
