101. Given,

cost of tractor =? 12,000

Amount paid =? 62,000

Amount unpaid =? 12000 -? 6000 =? 6000

So, number of instalments =     

 

= ?  6000500

= 12 = n

Now, interest on 1st installment = interest on unpaid amount ( i.e.? 6000) for 1 Year.

=?  6000*12*1100 = ?720

Similarly,

Interest on 2nd installment = interest on (? 6000 -? 500) for the next 1 year

=?  5500*12*1100 = ?660

And,

Interest on 2nd installment =?   (5500500)*12*1100

=? 600

Here, Total (interest per) installment paid =? (720 + 660 + 600 + ……. upto 12 terms)

=122 [2 (720)+ (121) (60)]  { ? 720 + 660 + 600 …….is an A.P. of a = 720, d = 660 - 720  = - 60}

= 6 [ 1440 -

100. Given, 1*22+2*32+?+n(n+1)212*2+22+3+?+n2(n+1)

For numerator,

a  (nth term) = n (n + 1)2 = n (n + 1)2 = n (n2 + 2n +1) = n3 + 2n2 + n

So, Sn=an=n3+2n2+n

=n2(n+1)24+2(n+1)(2n+1)n6+n(n+1)2

=n(n+1)2[n(n+1)2+2(2n+1)3+1]

=n(n+1)2[3n(n+1)+2*2(2n+1)+66]

=n(n+1)12[3n2+3n+8n+4n+6]

=n(n+1)12[3n2+11n+10]

=n(n+1)12[3n2+6n+5n+10]

=n(n+1)12[(33n(n+2)+5(n+2)]

=n(n+1)(n+2)(3n+5)12

For denominator,

an (nth term) = n2 (n + 1) = n3 + n2

So,

Sn=an=n3+n2

=n2(n+1)24+n(n+1)(2n+1)6

=n(n+1)2[n(n+1)2+(2n+1)3]

=n(n+1)2[3n(n+1)+2(2n+1)6]

=n(n+1)2[3n2+3n+4n+26]

=n(n+1)2[3n2+6n+1n+26]

=n(n+1)2[3n(n+2)+(n+2)6]

=n(n+1)(n+2)(3n+1)12]

So, 1*22+2*32+?+n(n+1)212*2+22*3+?+n2(n+1)=n(n+1)(n+2)(3n+5)12n(n+1)(n+2)(3n+1)12

=3n+53n+1

99. The given series is.

131+13+231+3+13+23+331+3+5 +…………. upto nth term,

The nth term is ,

an=13+23+33+........+n31+3+5+........+n...terms { A.P. of n terms and a = 1, d = 5-3 = 2}

an=[n(n+1)2]2n2[2*1+(n1)2]

an=n2(n+1)24n2[2+(n1)2]=n2(n+1)24n[1+n1]

an=n2(n+1)24n2=(n+1)24

an=n2+2x+14=n24+n2+14

Sn=an=14x2+12n+1

=14*9(n+1)(2n+1)6+12*n(x+1)2+14*n

=n4[(n+1)(2n+1)6+(n+1)+1]

=n4[2n2+n(n+1)(2n+1)+6(x+1)+66]

=n4[2n2+n+2n+1+6n+6+66]

=n4[2n2+9n+136]

=n(2n2+9n+13)24

98. Given,

S1 = 1 + 2 + 3 + ………. + n =n+(n+1)2

S2 = 12 + 22 + 32 + ………… + n2  =n(n+1)(2n+1)6

S3 = 13 + 23 + 33 + …………. + n3 =[n(n+1)2]2

So, L.H.S. =9S22=9*[n(n+1)(2n+1)6]2

=9*n2(n+1)2(2n+1)236

=n2(n+1)2(2n+1)24

R.H.S. =S3(1+8S1)=[n(n+1)2]2[1+8*n(n+1)2]

=n2(n+1)24*[1+4n(n+1)]

=n2(n+1)24[1+4n2+4n]

=n2(n+1)24[(2n)2+2(2n)1+12]

=n2(n+1)24(2n+1)2= L.H.S.

So, 9(S2)2 = S3 ( 1 + 8S1)

97. The given series is 3+7+13+21+31+ ……. upto n terms

So, Sum, Sn = 3+7+13+21+31+ ………….+ an-1 + an

Now, taking,

Sn = Sn = [ 3 + 7 + 13 + 21 + 31 + ………. an-1 + an ] [ 3+ 7 + 21 + 31 + … an-1 + an]

0 = [ 3+ (7 - 3) + (13 - 7) + (13 - 7) + (21 - 13) + …….+ (an an-1) - an]

0 = 3 + [ 4 + 6 + 8 +…….+ (n-1) terms] an

an=3+{n12[2*4+[(n1)1]2]} { ? 4 + 6 + 8 + ……. is sum of A.P. of n 1 terms with a = 4, d = 6- 4 = 2}

an=3+{n12[8+(n2)2]}

an=3+{n12*2[4+n2]}=3+(n1)(n+2)

an = 3 + n2 + (1 + 2) n + (-1) (2) { ? (a + b) (a + b) = a2 + (b + c) a + bc }

an = 3 + n2 + n- 2 = n2 + n +1

sum of series, Sn=an=n2+n+1

=n(n+1)(2n+1)6+n(x+1)2+n

=n[(n+1)(2n+1)6+n+12+1]

=n[(n+1)(2n+1)+3(n+1)+66]

=n[2n2+n+2n+1+3n+3+66]

=n[2n2+6n+10]6]

=n[2(n2+3n+5)6]

=n(n2+3n+5)3

96. Given, series is 2*4+4*6+6*8++n terms.

So, a20 = ( 20th term of A.P. 2, 4, 6 ….) ( 20th term of A.P. 4,6,8 ………)

i.e. a = 2, d = 4 -2 = 2 i.e. a =4, d = 6- 4 = 2

= [2 + (20- 1)2] [4 + (20-1)2]

= [2+19*2] [4 +19 *2]

= (2+38) (4+38)

= 40*42 = 1680

95. (i) Sn = 5+55+555+…………… upto n term

=5(1+11+111+ …………….upto n term )

Multiplying and dividing by 9 we get

=59(9+99+999+…upto nterms)

=59[(101)+(1001)+(0001)+.upto nterms] =59[(10+100+1000+?n)(1+1+1...upto nterms]

=59[(10+102+103+?upto nterms
n*1]

=59[10(10n1)101n] { ?10+102+103+ntermsisaG.Pofa=10,r=10>1nterms }

=59*[109(10n1)n]

=5081(10n1)5n9

 

(ii) Sn=0.6+0.66+0.666+n

=6[0.1+0.11+0.111+?uptonterms]

=69[0.9+099+0.999+?uptonterms] {multiplying and dividing by 9}

=69[(10.1)+(10.01)+(10.001)+?uptonterms]

=69[(1+1+1n)(0.1+0.01+0.001+uptonterms)]

=69[n*1(110+1100+11000+?uptonterms)]

=69[n(110+110*110+110*(110)2+?uptonterms)]

=69[n110(1(110)n)1110]

=69[n1(110)n101]

=69[x19(1110n)]

=69*19[9x(1110n)]

=227[9n(1110n)]

=227[9n1+110n]

94. As a, b, c are in A.P. we can write,

ba=cb

b+b=a+c

2b=a+c I

As b, c, d are in G.P. we can write,

cb=dc

c2=bd II

And ar 1c,1d,1e are in A.P. we can write,

1d1c=1e1d

1d+1d=1c+1e

2d=e+cce

d2=cee+c

d=2cec+e …………. III

Now, c2=Bd from II

=a+c2*2cec+c {from 1 and 3}

c2=(a+c)cec+e

c=(a+c)e(c+e)

c(c+e)=(a+c)e

c2+ce=ac+ce

c2=ae

ca=ec

i.e., a, c and e are in G.P.

92. Given, ab are roots of x23x+p=0

and c & d are roots of x212x+q=0

So, a+b=(3)1 and ab=P1

a + b = +3 ………….I and ab = P…………….II { ? sum of roots = BA , Product of roots = CA }

Similarly, c + d =(12)1 and cd=q1

c + d = 12 ……….III ad cd = q (4)

As a, b, c, d from a G.P and if r be the common ratio

a = a

b = ar

c = ar2

d = ar3

So, from equation, (1),

a+b=3a+ar=3a(1+r)=3 (5)

And c+d=12ar2+ar3=12ar2(1+r)=12 (6)

Dividing equation (6) and (5) we get,

ar2(1+r)a(1+r)=123

 r2 = 4

Now, L.H.S. =q+pqp=cd+abcdab {from (4) and (5)}

=ar2*ar3+a*arar2+ar3a*ar

=a2r(r4+1)a2r(r41)

=(r2)2+1(r2)21=42+1421=16+1161=1715 = R.H.S.
