उत्तर
We have,
the initial salary, a1 = ₹5200,
the salary of the second month, a2 = ₹5200 + ₹320 = ₹5520,
the salary of the third month, a3 = ₹5520 + ₹320 = ₹5840,
\[\text { As, } a_2 - a_1 = 5520 - 5200 = 320 \text { and } a_3 - a_2 = 5840 - 5520 = 320\]
\[i . e . a_2 - a_1 = a_3 - a_2 \]
\[\text { So, } a_1 , a_2 , a_3 , . . . \text { are in A . P } . \]
\[\text { Also, } a = 5200, d = 320\]
\[\left( i \right) a_{10} = a + \left( 10 - 1 \right)d\]
\[ = 5200 + 9 \times 320\]
\[ = 5200 + 2880\]
\[ = 8080\]
\[\text { So, the salary of the man for the tenth month is } ₹ 8, 080 . \]
\[\left( ii \right) S_{12} = \frac{12}{2}\left[ 2a + \left( 12 - 1 \right)d \right]\]
\[ = 6\left( 2 \times 5200 + 11 \times 320 \right)\]
\[ = 6\left( 10400 + 3520 \right)\]
\[ = 6 \times 13920\]
\[ = 83520\]
\[\text { So, the total earnings of the man during the first year is } ₹ 83, 520 .\]
