Write first four terms of the A.P. when the first term a and the common difference d are given as follows:

a = -1.25, d = -0.25

बेरीज

उत्तर

a = -1.25, d = -0.25

Let the series be a1, a2, a3, a4

a1 = a = -1.25

a2 = a1 + d = -1.25 + (-0.25) = -1.50

a3 = a2 + d = -1.50 + (-0.25) = -1.75

a4 = a3 + d = -1.75 + (-0.25) = -2.0

Clearly, the series will be -1.25, -1.50, -1.75, -2.0 ……..

First four terms of this A.P. will be -1.25, -1.50, -1.75 and -2.0.

Case Study

Push-ups are a fast and effective exercise for building strength. These are helpful in almost all sports including athletics. While the push-up primarily targets the muscles of the chest, arms, and shoulders, support required from other muscles helps in toning up the whole body.


Nitesh wants to participate in the push-up challenge. He can currently make 3000 push-ups in one hour. But he wants to achieve a target of 3900 push-ups in 1 hour for which he practices regularly. With each day of practice, he is able to make 5 more push-ups in one hour as compared to the previous day. If on first day of practice he makes 3000 push-ups and continues to practice regularly till his target is achieved. Keeping the above situation in mind answer the following questions:

  1. Form an A.P representing the number of push-ups per day and hence find the minimum number of days he needs to practice before the day his goal is accomplished?
  2. Find the total number of push-ups performed by Nitesh up to the day his goal is achieved.
