Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 5

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 6

The value of ‘k’ for which the numbers x, 2x + k, 3x + 6 are in A.P. is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 6

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 7

If the common difference of an A.P. is 5, then the value of a20 − a13 is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 7

Given: a20 - a13 and d = 5
⇒ a20 - a13 = a + (20 - 1) d - [a + (13 - 1) d] = a + (20 - 1) x 5 - [a + (13 - 1) x 5]
⇒ a20 - a13 - a = a + 95 - [a + 60]
= a+95 - a - 60 = 35 

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 8

Two APs have the same common difference. The difference between their 100th terms is 100, then the difference between their 1000th terms is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 8

The formula for nth term of an AP is aₙ = a + (n - 1) d

Here, aₙ is the nth term, a is the first term, d is the common difference and n is the number of terms.

For first A.P., a₁₀₀ = a₁ + (100 - 1) d

a₁₀₀ = a₁ + 99d ------ (1)

a₁₀₀₀ = a₁ + (1000 - 1)d

a₁₀₀₀ = a₁ + 999d ------ (2)

For second A.P.,

b₁₀₀ = b₁+ (100 - 1)d

b₁₀₀ = b₁ + 99d ------ (3)

b₁₀₀₀ = b₁ + (1000 - 1)d

b₁₀₀₀ = b₁ + 999d ------ (4)

Given that, difference between 100th term of these A.P.s = 100

Thus, from equations (1) and (3) we have

(a₁ + 99d ) - (b₁ + 99d ) = 100

a₁ - b₁ = 100 ...(5)

Difference between 1000th terms of these A.P.s

Thus, from equations (2) and (4) we have

(a₁ + 999d ) - (b₁ + 999d ) = a₁ - b₁

But a₁ - b₁ = 100 [From equation(5)]

Hence, the difference between the 1000th terms of these A.P. will be 100.

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 9

The common difference of the A.P whose Sn = 3n2+ 2n is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 9


Thus, initial term of the A.P. is 5 and the common difference is 6.

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 10

The sum of (a + b), (a – b), (a – 3b), …….. to 22nd term is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 10

First Term =  a+b
Second Term =  a-b
Common Difference is a-b-a-b = -2b.

Summation of 22 terms of an A.P. is     
n/2 [ 2a + (n-1)d ]
22/2 [2 ( a+b) + (22-1)-2b ]
11  [ 2a+2a-b + (21)-2b  ]
11  [  2a+2b - 42b ]
11  [ 2a - 40b ]
22a - 40b.

So, the summation of given A.P. for 22 terms is 22a - 40b 

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 11

The next term of the A.P. √18 , √32 and √50 is

Detailed Solution for RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 11

RD Sharma Test: Arithmetic Progressions - Question 12
