Explanation :

Answer: B) -2 Explanation: We know that in A.P series18th term = a + 17d29th term = a + 28dBut given a + 17d = 29..........(i)a + 28d = 18......... (ii)Solving equation (i) and (ii), we getd = -1put d = -1 in any of the above equations and we get, a = 46Now, we know 49th term can be written as, a + 48d putting the value of a and d in the above equation,a + 48d = 46 + 48(-1) = 46 - 48 = -2 Hence, the 49th term is -2.
