Find the sum of the following Aps:
9, 7, 5, 3 … to 14 terms
उत्तर
The given AP is 9, 7, 5, 3,……….
Here, a = 9 and d = 7 - 9 = - 2
Using the formula, `s_n = n/2 [ 2a + (n-1) d] ,` we have
`s_14 = 14/2 [ 2 xx9 + (14 -1) xx (-2 )]`
`= 7 xx (18-26)`
= 7×(-8)
=-56

If the sum of the first n terms of an AP is 4n − n2, what is the first term (that is, S1)? What is the sum of the first two terms? What is the second term? Similarly, find the 3rd, the 10th, and the nth terms.
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`]

1,3,5,....,149 .
Here a = 1 , d =b`[ ], t_n = 149`
tn = a + (n-1) d
∴ 149 =`[ ] ∴149 = 2n - [ ]`
∴ n =`[ ]`
