उत्तर
`(x - y)/(x + y),(3x - 2y)/(x + y), (5x - 3y)/(x + y)`, .....to n terms
Number of terms (n) = n
Number of terms (n) = n = `((x - y)/(x + y))`
Common difference of the A.P. (d) = `a_2 - a_1`
`= ((3x - 2)/(x + y)) - (x - y)/(x + y)`
`= ((3x - 2y) - (x - y))/(x +y)`
`= (3x - 2y - x + y)/(x + y)`
`= (2x - y)/(x - y)`
So using the formula we get
`S_n = n/2[2((x - y)/(x + y)) + (n - 1)((2x - y )/(x + y))]`
`= (n/2) [((2x - 2y)/(x + y)) + (n(2x - y)- 2x + y)/(x + y)]`
`= (n/2)[(2x -2y)/(x + y) + (((n (2x - y) - 2x + y))/(x + y))]`
Now, on further solving the above equation we get,
`= (n/2)((2x - 2y + n(2x - y) - 2x + y)/(x + y))`
`= (n/2) ((n(2x - y) - y)/(x + y))`
Therefore, the sum of first n terms for the given A.P. is `(n/2) ((n(2x - y) - y)/(x + y))`

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?
