प्रश्न
Write an A.P. whose first term is a and common difference is d in the following.
उत्तर
a = –7, d = `1/2`
t1 = a = –7
t2 = a + d = `-7 + 1/2 = (-14 + 1)/2 = (-13)/2`
t3 = a + 2d = `-7 + 2(1/2)` = –7 + 1 = –6
t4 = a + 3d = `-7 + 3(1/2) = -7 + 3/2 = (-14 + 3)/2 = (-11)/2`
∴ A.P. is `-7, (-13)/2, -6, (-11)/2 .......`
∴ A.P. is –7, –6.5, –6, –5.5 ........

A small terrace at a football field comprises 15 steps, each of which is 50 m long and built of solid concrete. Each step has a rise of `1/4` m and a tread of `1/2` m (See figure). Calculate the total volume of concrete required to build the terrace.
[Hint: Volume of concrete required to build the first step = `1/4 xx 1/2 xx 50 m^3`]
