उत्तर
It is given that (5x + 2),(4x -1) and (x+2) are in AP.
∴ (4x -1)- (5x +2) = (x+2) - (4x-1)
⇒ 4x -1 - 5x -2 = x+2 -4x +1
⇒ -x -3 = -3x+3
⇒ 3x -x=3+3
⇒2x=6
⇒ x =3
Hence, the value of x is 3.

Q.4
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`.

Complete the following activity to find the 19th term of an A.P. 7, 13, 19, 25, ........ :
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`
