Solution
b)
Sum of n terms of AP= n(+1)/2
(2i -1) = 2i - 1 = 2*{n*(n+1)/2} - n = n^2 + n - n = n^2
e)
Expading the series we get {a, ar, ar22, ar33, ar44, ...........} i.e GP with first term ‘a’ and common ratio r. Then,
Now, the nth terms of the given GP = a r
n1.
Sn = a + ar + ar2 + ar3 + ar4 + ........ + arn2 + arn1......... (i)
Multiplying both sides by r, we get,
rSn = ar + ar2 + ar3 + ar4 + ar5+ ................ + arn1 + arn ............ (ii)
____________________________________________________________
On subtracting (ii) from (i), we get
Sn - rSn = a - arn
Sn(1 - r) = a(1 - rn)
Sn = a(1rn)(1r)
or Sn= a(rn1)(r1)
f) Let x be any integer. So next six integers will be x+1,x+2,x+3,x+4,x+5,x+6.
Sum of integers= x+ (x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4)+x+5)+(x+6) =7x+21= 7(x+3)
We can easily see irrespective of the number the sum of seven consiquitive number have 7 as one of the factor. So divide 7(x+3) by 7, the sum is always divisible by 7.
