Question - 14 : - The first and the last terms of an A.P. are 17 and 350 respectively. If the common difference is 9, how many terms are there and what is their sum ?

Answer - 14 : -

First term of an A.P. (a) = 17
Last term (l) = 350
Common difference (d) = 9
Let n be the number of terms Then an = a + (n – 1) d
=> 350 = 17 + (n – 1) x 9
=> 350 = 17 + 9n – 9
=> 9n = 350 – 17 + 9 = 342
n = 38
Number of terms = 38
Now Sn = (n/2) [a + l]
= (38/2) [17 + 350] = 19 (367) = 6973

Question - 15 : - The third term of an A.P. is 7 and the seventh term exceeds three times the third term by 2. Find the first term, the common difference and the sum of first 20 terms.

Answer - 15 : -


Question - 16 : - The first term of an A.P. is 2 and the last term is 50. The sum of all these terms is 442. Find the common difference.

Answer - 16 : -


Question - 17 : - If 12th term of an A.P. is -13 and the sum of the first four terms is 24, what is the sum of first 10 terms ?

Answer - 17 : -

12th term of an A.P. = -13
Sum of first 4 terms = 24
Let a be the first term and d be the common difference

Question - 18 : - Find the sum of n terms of the series

Answer - 18 : -


Question - 19 : - In an A.P., if the first term is 22, the common difference is -4 and the sum to n terms is 64, find n.

Answer - 19 : -


Question - 20 : - In an A.P., if the 5th and 12th terms are 30 and 65 respectively, what is the sum of first 20 terms ?

Answer - 20 : -

In an A.P.
5th term = 30
