Which term of the Arithmetic Progression (A.P.) 15, 30, 45, 60...... is 300?
Hence find the sum of all the terms of the Arithmetic Progression (A.P.)
उत्तर
Given A.P. is 15, 30, 45, 60.........
Here a = 15, d = 30 – 15 = 15
Let Tn = 300
Tn = a + (n – 1)d
300 = 15 + (n – 1) × 15
300 = 15 + 15n – 15
15n = 300
∴ n = 20
Hence, 300 is the 20th term
Also by Sn = `n/2 [2a + (n - 1)d]`
S20 = `20/2 [2 xx 15 + (20 - 1) xx 15]`
= 10[30 + 285]
= 10 × 315
∴ S20 = 3150

In a school, students thought of planting trees in and around the school to reduce air pollution. It was decided that the number of trees, that each section of each class will plant will be the same as the class, in which they are studying, e.g., a section of class I will plant 1 tree, a section of class II will plant 2 trees, and so on till class XII. There are three sections of each class. How many trees will be planted by the students?
A ladder has rungs 25 cm apart. (See figure). The rungs decrease uniformly in length from 45 cm at the bottom to 25 cm at the top. If the top and bottom rungs are 2 `1/2` m apart, what is the length of the wood required for the rungs?
[Hint: number of rungs = `250/25+ 1`]
