: If m times the mth term of an A.P. is n times its nth term, show thatthe (m+n)th term of the A.P. is 0. |

Answer» Let the first term of AP = acommon difference = dWe have to show that (m+n)th term is zero ora + (m+n-1)d = 0 mth term= a + (m-1)dnth term = a + (n-1) d Given thatm{a +(m-1)d} = n{a + (n -1)d}⇒am +m²d -md = an + n²d - nd⇒am - an +m²d - n²d -md + nd = 0⇒a(m-n) + (m²-n²)d-(m-n)d = 0⇒a(m-n) + {(m-n)(m+n)}d -(m-n)d = 0⇒ a(m-n) + {(m-n)(m+n) -(m-n)} d = 0⇒a(m-n) +(m-n)(m+n -1) d = 0⇒ (m-n){a+ (m+n-1)d} = 0⇒a + (m+n -1)d = 0/(m-n)⇒a + (m+n -1)d = 0 |

people in the group.28. If the mth term of an AP isand nth term isthen show that its (onn)th term is 1. |
|
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 APa+(mn-1)d=1/mn+1+(-1/mn)=1 hence proved. hit like if you find it useful |

|
Answer» Length of the train = l meter. Speed of the two trains are l/5 and l/6. Total distance = 2l. In same direction Relative speed is (l/5 - l/6). = l/5 - l/6 = l/30. Required Time = Distance/Speed. = 2l/(l/30) = 60 seconds. Shortcut method: Formula = 2(Product of time taken)/Difference of time taken. = 2(6 * 5)/(6 - 5) = 2 * 30 = 60 seconds. |
