A.

35/3

B.

64

C.

16

D.

35/2

Correct Answer: 35/3

Explanation

Tn = a + (n-1)d 10th term = 32 32 = 3/2 + 9d 9d = 32 - 3/2 9d = 61/2 d = 61/18 : T4 = 3/2 + 3(61/18) T4 = 3/2 + 61/6 → 35/3

Tn = a + (n-1)d 10th term = 32 32 = 3/2 + 9d 9d = 32 - 3/2 9d = 61/2 d = 61/18 : T4 = 3/2 + 3(61/18) T4 = 3/2 + 61/6 → 35/3
