उत्तर
Given, a4 + a8 = 24
a6 + a10 = 44
Let the first term of A.P be a and common difference be d
a4 + a8 = 24
a + 3d + a + 7d = 24
2a + 10d = 24
a + 5d = 12 ...(1)
a6 + a10 = 44
a + 5d + a + 9d = 44
2a + 14d = 44
a + 7d = 22 ...(2)
From equation (1) and (2)
d = 5 and a = – 13
∴ First term of A.P. = – 13
and Common difference = 5
Sn = `n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]`
S25 = `25/2[-26 + 24 xx 5]`
= `25/2 xx 94`
Sum of 25 terms = 25 × 47 = 1175
