Is -150 a term of the AP 11, 8, 5, 2, ……?

उत्तर
The given AP is 11, 8, 5, 2, ……
Here, a= 11and d = 8 - 11 = - 3
Let the nth term of the given AP be - 150. Then,
an = -150
⇒ 11+ (n-1) × (-3) = - 150 [ an = a + (n-1) d]
⇒ -3n +14 = -150
⇒ -3n = -164
⇒ n= `164/3 = 54 2/3`
But, the number of terms cannot be a fraction.
Hence, -150 is not a term of the given AP.

Find the sum of natural numbers between 1 to 140, which are divisible by 4.
Activity: Natural numbers between 1 to 140 divisible by 4 are, 4, 8, 12, 16,......, 136
Here d = 4, therefore this sequence is an A.P.
a = 4, d = 4, tn = 136, Sn = ?
tn = a + (n – 1)d
`square` = 4 + (n – 1) × 4
`square` = (n – 1) × 4
n = `square`
Now,
Sn = `"n"/2["a" + "t"_"n"]`
Sn = 17 × `square`
Sn = `square`
Therefore, the sum of natural numbers between 1 to 140, which are divisible by 4 is `square`.

Activity:
Given A.P. : 7, 13, 19, 25, ..........
Here first term a = 7; t19 = ?
tn + a + `(square)`d .........(formula)
∴ t19 = 7 + (19 – 1) `square`
∴ t19 = 7 + `square`
∴ t19 = `square`
