उत्तर
Sn = 6n – n²
T25 = ?
S(n–1) = 6(n – 1) – (n – 1)2
= 6n – 6 – (n2 – 2n + 1)
= 6n – 6 – n2 + 2n –1
= 8n – n2 – 7
an = Sn – Sn – 1
= 6n – n2 – 8n + n2 + 7
= –2n + 7
a25 = –2(25) + 7
= –50 + 7
= –43.

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`.
