joining (o, an , ,The ratio between the sum of n terms of twoarithmetic progression is (7n +1):(4n + 27) Findthe ratio of their 11th terms.l adratic equation

Answer»

Given ratio of sum of n terms of two AP’s = (7n+1):(4n+27)

Let’s consider the ratio these two AP’s mth terms as am : a’m →(2)

Recall the nth term of AP formula, an = a + (n – 1)d

Hence equation (2) becomes,am : a’m = a + (m – 1)d : a’ + (m – 1)d’

On multiplying by 2, we getam : a’m = [2a + 2(m – 1)d] : [2a’ + 2(m – 1)d’]

= [2a + {(2m – 1) – 1}d] : [2a’ + {(2m – 1) – 1}d’]

= S2m – 1 : S’2m – 1

= [7(2m – 1) + 1] : [4(2m – 1) +27] [from (1)]

= [14m – 7 +1] : [8m – 4 + 27]

= [14m – 6] : [8m + 23]

Thus the ratio of mth terms of two AP’s is [14m – 6] : [8m + 23].

If X is the arithmetic mean of n observations x,x.X, find the arithmetic mean of ax, a...

Answer»

Here sum of Observations = x1+ x2 + ....... + xnNo. of observations = n

Mean = x bar , As the bar can't be represented here I am taking it as i.e. x bar = b, for better understanding,

Now,b = (x1+ x2 + ......+ xn)/n=> bn = x1 + x2 + x3 + ..... + xnMultiple both the sides with a=> abn = ax1 + ax2 + ax3 + ..... + axn

Now we got the value of ax1 + ax2 + ... + axn

Now new mean or Required mean is,

New mean = (ax1+ ax2 + ... + axn )/n=> New mean = abn/n=> New mean = ab

Here b = x bar, As I said above , So the new mean = a * x bar

15.

If mth term of an A.P. is - and nth term is, then find the sum of itsfirst mn terms.

Answer»

Given that, mth term=1/n and nth term=1/m.

then ,let a and d be the first term and the common difference of the A.P.

so a+(m-1)d=1/n...........(1) and a+(n-1)d=1/m...........(2).

subtracting equation (1) by (2) we get,

md-d-nd+d=1/n-1/m=>d(m-n)=m-n/mn=>d=1/mn.

again if we put this value in equation (1) or (2) we get, a=1/mn.

then, let A be the mnth term of the AP

a+(mn-1)d=1/mn+1+(-1/mn)=1 hence proved.

Answer»

Given terms is AP are(x + b), (x + 3b), (x + 5b)....

Then,a1 = (x + b)common difference d= (x + 3b) - (x + b) = 2b

General term of an APan = a1 + (n - 1)*(2b) = (x + b) + 2bn - 2b = x + (2n - 1)b

General Term of an A.PConsider the following A. P. 5, 8, 11, 14,

Answer»

For an APGeneral term or nth termTn = a + (n-1)d

e sre wiil weave280 metres long is running at a speed of 42 km/hr: How much time will tass a man standing on a platformtake to pass a

Answer»

Distance Travelled= 280 m

Speed of the train = 42km/h= 700/60m/s

Using the formula Time = Distance/Time

= 280÷700/60

= 280×60/700

= 16800/700

= 24s

28.

A train 280 m long is moving at a speed of 60 km/hr. What is the time taken by it tocross a platform 220 m long?

Answer»

∵ Speed of the train = 60 x (5/18) m/sec = 50/3 m/sec∴ Time taken by the train to cross the platform= Time taken by it to cover (280 + 220) m= (500 x 3/50) sec = 30 sec

29.

18. A train 280 m long is moving at a speed of 60 km/hr. What is the time taken by it tocross a platform 220 m long?

Answer»

Total distance to cover = 280 + 220 =500 m= 0.5 km

Time = distance /speed = 0.5 (km) /60 (km/hr) = 0.0083333333. Hour

In minute, = 0.008333*60 Time = 0.5 minutes

In seconds, Time=30 seconds.

280+220=500 is the total distancespeed=60 km/htime=distance/speedtime=.500/60=.00833h =.5 min =30 sec

i .: A train 120 metres long passes a tree in 5 seconds. How long will it take to cross a railway platform180 metres long?

Answer»

Since the length of the tree is negligible, so distance in first case is taken as the length of the train.

Speed = Distance / Time= 120/5= 24 m/s

Now ,

Distance = ( 120 + 180 ) = 300 mSpeed = 24 m/s

Time = Distance / Speed= 300 / 24= 25/2= 12.5 seconds

a contractor undertakes to build a wall 1000 m long in 50 days. He employs 56 men but at the end of 27 days, he finds that only 448 m of wall is built. How many extra men must the contractor employ so that the wall is completed in time?

Answer»

Wall Built = 448m; Time Taken =27 days; Men working = 56 men

Wall builtby 56 men in 1 day = 448/27mWall built by 1 man in 1 day = 448/(27x56) = 56/189m

Now,Wall left to be built = 552m; Time left = 23 days;Total men required to complete the rest of work = x

Wall built by x no. of men in 1 day = 56x/189mWall built by x no. of men in 23 days =(56*23)x/189 = 1288x/189Thus,1288x/189 = 552 (As x no. of men have to build 552m of wall)1288x = 104328x = 104328/1288x= 81menTherefore, extra men required = 81-56 = 25 men

Answer»

Wall Built = 448m; Time Taken =27 days; Men working = 56 men

Wall builtby 56 men in 1 day = 448/27mWall built by 1 man in 1 day = 448/(27x56) = 56/189m

Now,Wall left to be built = 552m; Time left = 23 days;Total men required to complete the rest of work = x

Wall built by x no. of men in 1 day = 56x/189mWall built by x no. of men in 23 days =(56*23)x/189 = 1288x/189Thus,1288x/189 = 552 (As x no. of men have to build 552m of wall)1288x = 104328x = 104328/1288x= 81menTherefore, extra men required = 81-56 = 25 men
