Lol for years... throughout my entire University life, I'm even in my Masters degree now...and whenever I falter on my math, I always think "consult Sal"...bcz he never disappoints. Thank you Sir...thank you for the As
I keenly watch your videos.It is very nice of you that you have uploaded the video on derivation of sum formula of AP.More than a million students appearing for their class 10 exams this march 2013 in india will remain greatful to you.Thanks
at 6:20 you said that it makes intuitive sense because you're increasing by the same amount every time, i dont see how thats intuitive but would really like to know. can someone PLEASE elaborate on how it is intuitive? thanks in advance!
Hello!!could any body explain the solution... If avijith saves rs.400 more each year than he did the year before and if he saves rs.2000 in the 1st year ,after how many years will his savings be more than rs.100000 altogether?
The value of n, plainly put is the no of figures given. Like from 2-11, the value of n is 10. If every figure is given, you can either count all of them, and that would be its value. OR You could divide the last term by the difference between any two terms (d), and the quotient you get is the value of n - 1. For example, let's take 1,3,5,7,9. The last term is 9 and the difference between each term is 2. Thus 9/2 is 4 with remainder 1. Add 1 to the quotient and you get the value of n. And in addition to that you also get your first element i.e. In this case 1, so you can cross check your answer.
+Aayush Kucheria You are partially correct. The second method won't work if the series involves numbers lesser than 0 So taking the same example: if the series was -1,1,3,5,7,9..The number of terms is no longer 5

+David Metcalfe You can learn context and analogy when you learn jobs where they use the math in, or you can just ask the math teacher at school where the would use the math they're learning in class, that's what I do. Sometimes the teacher will tell you that with out you even asking.
Bcz a,a+d,a+2d,a+3d+,...,+a+nd this is arithmetic series and for nth term if the formula would be tn=a+nd and u will gonna solve it let's say for n=2 a/c to the above formula t2=a+2d but in actual the 2nd term is a+d that's why we use tn=a+(n-1)d a/c to this t2 would exactly be a+d.
Because there are n terms in the sequence. So if we are adding up some term again and again, n times... it's the same as multiplying that 'some term' by n. It's kinda complicated to absorb at first but once you get it, you'll know exactly why with no problem

But arithmetic series' aren't. He's a cool guy.
laughs in Michael Jackson.
Khan Academy is literally a life saviour
im having a mental breakdown because of mid terms
twinnzeeezzz
Meee toooo
Best explanation on the net - thanks again Khan Academy
lol u explain it all in the end but until then im like wtf how am i gonna remember it.
0:54 mind blown, now I know why it's n-1
Yeeeeah i got to 111th comment i am so proud of myself...but really the video explained way better then my teacher could in a week.
More subs than DramaAlert
School is giving me grey hairs tbh
Same, my teacher says we have to watch this video, so im one foot in the grave.
I keenly watch your videos.It is very nice of you that you have uploaded the video on derivation of sum formula of AP.More than a million students appearing for their class 10 exams this march 2013 in india will remain greatful to you.Thanks
how do i find the sum of the next 18 terms and the sum of the first 18 term if im given an arithmetic progression ?
at 6:20 you said that it makes intuitive sense because you're increasing by the same amount every time, i dont see how thats intuitive but would really like to know. can someone PLEASE elaborate on how it is intuitive? thanks in advance!
Same here, much easier to understand intuitively.
Thanks sir awesom...... from India
I honestly love you man! saved me at least 20 mins!
Great sir❤❤❤
How do you predict the (for example) the 15th term?
a15 = a1(15-1)d
what is n? and how do you figure out what it is?
AUUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH! how am I going to remember this?!?!?
this was extremely helpful and understandable, thank you
This explained it well. Thanks.
Your brain is 3 times the size of the average human, thanks for simplifying things and helping me to muse my mind......
Omg thank you soo much I understand this now
😂😩😩😩

Thank you!
Love from India
always learned this w/ the anecdote of a 10 yr old Gauss, finding the sum of 1-100.
Very well said
geat explanation
Nice work. Thanks.
what if they give me every figure except for the value of n. how do we find n?
The value of n, plainly put is the no of figures given. Like from 2-11, the value of n is 10.
If every figure is given, you can either count all of them, and that would be its value.
OR
You could divide the last term by the difference between any two terms (d), and the quotient you get is the value of n - 1.
For example, let's take 1,3,5,7,9.
The last term is 9 and the difference between each term is 2.
Thus 9/2 is 4 with remainder 1.
Add 1 to the quotient and you get the value of n.
And in addition to that you also get your first element i.e. In this case 1, so you can cross check your answer.

you repeat your words so much

Why n' th term is a+(n-1)d
how can i got that for me
I am having my online class yet i still don't understand this argghhh i want academic freeze rn
how to find the n in the 'n-1'
just count or identify the number of terms for example 3,7,11,15,19. your n will be 5
Why did you do (n-1) ? Why not just 'n'. ?
Bcz a,a+d,a+2d,a+3d+,...,+a+nd this is arithmetic series and for nth term if the formula would be tn=a+nd and u will gonna solve it let's say for n=2 a/c to the above formula t2=a+2d but in actual the 2nd term is a+d that's why we use tn=a+(n-1)d a/c to this t2 would exactly be a+d.
so im gonna fail maths
@Khanacademy what does the n mean in (a+[n+1]d)?
u have not explained where is n coming from and you have to multiply it to the rest of the series
eye Opener
I use don't understand ur version. My teacher give us an equation and we solved it. I he give us numbers to put in equation. Ur vensionnfrsio
I jusr need to know how to find the common difference omfg
why we multiplyed n
Because there are n terms in the sequence. So if we are adding up some term again and again, n times... it's the same as multiplying that 'some term' by n. It's kinda complicated to absorb at first but once you get it, you'll know exactly why with no problem
5050 it is
Sometimes you repeat your words. (just saying)
My teacher took a whole week to explain this 8 minute math to our class
Stop making it complicated
Yes!!!!!!
god bless
unpopular opinion : I actually like comic sans
Aerial for life
this is sooooo confusing
🤩🤩🙏
This formula is too complicated not a good option lol
We can't understand your hand writing
