Download Solution PDFGiven:
13, X, 22 are three consecutive terms of an Arithmetic Progression (AP).
Concept Used:
In an AP, the middle term of three consecutive terms is the arithmetic mean of the first and the third terms.
Mathematically, if a, b, c are in AP, then b = (a + c) / 2.
Calculation:
Here, the three consecutive terms are 13, X, and 22.
According to the property of AP:
X = (13 + 22) / 2
X = 35 / 2
X = 17.5
The value of X is 17.5.
