The 4th term of an A.P. is 22 and the 15th term is 66. Find the first terns and the common
difference. Hence find the sum of the series to 8 terms.
उत्तर
Let a be the first term and d be the common difference of given A.P.
Now,
4th term = 22
⇒ a + 3d = 22 ...(i)
15th term = 66
⇒ a + 14d = 66
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we have
11d = 44
⇒ d = 4
Substituting the value of d in (1) we get
a = 22 - 3 x 4 = 22 - 12 =10
⇒ First term = 10
Now
Sum of 8 terms = `8/2[2xx10+7xx4]` = 4[20+28] = 4x48=192
