Answer

Problem

Find the value of n,If \$ a = -4 , d = -6 ,a_n = -112 \$

Step

The given values

\$ a = -4 , d = -6 ,a_n = -112 \$

Formula:

The Arithmetic Progression formula

\$ a_n = a + (n-1)d\$

Hint

Substitute \$a,d,a_n\$ values in formula

\$ -112 = -4 + (n-1)-6\$

Step

After simplification we get

\$-112 = -4 - 6n + 6\$

Step

After simplification we get

\$ -112 = -6n + 2\$

Step

After simplification we get

\$ 6n = 112 + 2\$

Step

After simplification we get

\$ 6n = 114\$

Step

After simplification we get

\$ n = \cancel114^(19)/\cancel6^1\$

Step

The value of n is
