NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 1.
Fill in the blanks in the following table, given that a is the first term, d the common difference and an the nth term of the A.P.
Solution:
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 1
Solution:
(i) an = a + (n- 1)d
a8 = 7 + (8 – 1)3 = 7 + 7 × 3 = 7 + 21
⇒ a8 = 28

(ii) an = a + (n – 1)d
⇒ a10 = -18 + (10 – 1)7 ⇒ 0 = -18 + 9d
⇒ 9d = 18 ⇒ d = \(\frac{18}{9}=2\)
∴ d = 2

(iii) an = a + (n – 1)d
⇒ -5 = a + (18 – 1) × (-3)
⇒ -5 = a + 17 × (-3)
⇒ -5 = a – 51 ⇒ a = -5 + 51 = 46
Thus, a = 46

(iv) an = a + (n – 1)d
⇒ 3.6 = -18.9 + (n – 1) × 2.5
⇒ (n – 1) × 2.5 = 3.6 + 18.9
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 2
⇒ n = 9 + 1 = 10
Thus, n = 10

(v) an = a + (n- 1)d
⇒ an = 3.5 + (105 – 1) × 0
⇒ an = 3.5 + 104 × 0 ⇒ an = 3.5 + 0 = 3.5
Thus, an = 3.5

Question 2.
Choose the correct choice in the following and justify:
(i) 30th term of the AP: 10,7,4, , is, ….,
(A) 97
(B) 77
(C) -77
(D) -87

(ii) 11th term of the AP: -3, \(-\frac{1}{2}\), 2, …. ,is
(A) 28
(B) 22
(C) -38
(D) -48\(\frac{1}{2}\)
Solution:
(i) (C): Here, a = 10, n = 30
∵ T10 = a + (n – 1)d and d = 7 – 10 = -3
∴ T30 = 10 + (30 – 1) × (-3)
⇒ T30 = 10 + 29 × (-3)
⇒ T30 = 10 – 87 = -77

(ii) (B): Here, a = -3, n = 11 and

Question 3.
In the following APs, find the missing terms in the boxes:
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 50
Solution:
(i) Here, a = 2, T3 = 26
Let common difference = d
∴ Tn = a + (n- 1 )d
⇒ T3 = 2 + (3 – 1)d
⇒ 26 = 2 + 2 d
⇒ 2d = 26 – 2 = 24
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 4
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 51

(ii) Let the first term = a
and common difference = d
Here, T2 = 13 and T4 = 3
T2 = a + d = 13, T4 = a + 3d = 3
T1 – T2 = (a + 3d) – (a + d) = 3 – 13
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 5

(iii)
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 6

(iv) Here, a = – 4, T6 = 6
∵ Tn = a + (n -1 )d
T6 = – 4 + (6 – 1)d ⇒ 6 = -4 + 5d ⇒ 5d = 6 + 4 = d = 10 – 5 = 2
T2 = a + d = -4 + 2 =-2
T3 = a + 2d = -4 + 2(2) = 0
T4 = a + 3d = -4 + 3(2) = 2
T5 = a + 4d = -4 + 4(2) = 4
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 52

(v) Here, T2 = 38 and T6 = -22
∴ T2 = a + d = 38, T6 = a + 5d = -22
⇒ T6 – T2 = a + 5d – (a + d) = -22 – 38 -60
⇒ 4d = -60 ⇒ d = \(\frac{-60}{4}\) = -15
a + d = 38 ⇒ a + (-15) = 38
⇒ a = 38 + 15 = 53
Now,
T3 = a + 2d = 53 + 2(-15) = 53 – 30 = 23
T4 = a + 3d = 53 + 3(-15) = 53 – 45 = 8
T5 = a + 4d = 53 + 4(-15) = 53 – 60 = -7
Thus missing terms are

Question 4.
Which term of the AP: 3, 8, 13, 18, is 78?
Solution:
Let the nth term be 78
Here, a = 3 ⇒ T1 = 3 and T2 = 8
∴ d = T2 – T1 = 8 – 3 = 5
And, Tn = a + (n- 1 )d
⇒ 78 = 3 + (n – 1) × 5 ⇒ 78 – 3 = (n -1) × 5
⇒ 75 = (n – 1) × 5 ⇒ (n – 1) = 75 ÷ 5 = 15
⇒ n = 15 + 1 = 16
Thus, 78 is the 16th term of the given AP.

Question 5.
Find the number of terms in each of the following APs:
(i) 7,13,19, …….. ,205
(ii) 18, \(15 \frac{1}{2}\), 13, …… ,-47
Solution:
(i) Here, a = 7,d = 13 – 7 = 6
Let total number of terms be n.
∴ Tn = 205
Now, Tn = a + (n – 1) ×d
= 7 + (n – 1) × 6 = 205
⇒ (n – 1) × 6 = 205 – 7 = 198
⇒ n – 1 = \(\frac{198}{6}=33\)
∴ n = 33 + 1 = 34
Thus, the required number of terms is 34.

(ii)
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 7
Thus, the required number of terms is 27.

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 6.
Check whether -150 is a term of the AP:
11, 8, 5, 2…
Solution:
For the given AP,
we have a = 11, d = 8 -11 = -3
Let -150 be the nth term of the given AP
∴ Tn = a + (n – 1 )d
⇒ -150 = 11 + (n – 1) × (-3)
⇒ -150 – 11 = (n – 1) × (-3)
⇒ -161 = (n – 1) ⇒ (-3)
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 8
But n should be a positive integer.
Thus, -150 is not a term of the given AP

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 7.
Find the 31st term of an AP whose 11th term is 38 and the 16th term is 73.
Solution:
Here, T11 = 38 and T16 = 73
Let the first term = a and the common difference = d.
Tn = a + (n – 1 )d
Then, Tn = a + (11 – 1)d = 38
⇒ a + 10d = 38 …(1)
and T16 = a + (16 – 1)d = 73
⇒ a + 15d = 73 …(2)
Subtracting (1) from (2), we get
(a + 15d) – (a + 10d) = 73 – 38

Question 8.
An AP consists of 50 terms of which 3rd term is 12 and the last term is 106. Find the 29th term.
Solution:
Here, n = 50, T3 = 12, Tn = 106
⇒ T50 = 106
Let the first term = a and the common difference = d
Tn = a + (n – 1 )d
T3 = a + 2d = 12 …(1)
T50 = a + 49d = 106 …(2)
Subtracting (1) from (2), we get

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 9.
If the 3rd and the 9th terms of an AP are 4 and -8 respectively, which term of this AP is zero?
Solution:
Here, T3 = 4 and T9 = -8
Tn = a + (n – 1)d
T3 = a + 2d = 4 …. (1)
T9 = a + 8d = – 8 …. (2)
Subtracting (1) from (2), we get
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 12

Question 10.
The 17th term of an AP exceeds its 10th term by 7. Find the common difference.
Solution:
Let a be the first term and d the common difference of the given AP
Now, using n = a + (n – 1 )d, we have
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 13
Thus, the common difference is 1.

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 11.
Which term of the AP : 3, 15, 27, 39,… will be 132 more than its 54th term?
Solution:
Here, a = 3, d = 15 – 3 = 12
Using Tn = a + (n – 1 )d, we get
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 14
Thus, 132 more than 54th term is the 65th term.

Question 12.
Two APs have the same common difference. The difference between their 100th terms is 100, what is the difference between their 1000th terms?
Solution:
Let for the 1st AP, the first term = a and common difference = d
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 15
And for the 2nd AP, the first term = a and common difference = d
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 16
According to the condition,

Question 13.
How many three-digit numbers are divisible by 7?
Solution:
The first three-digit number divisible by 7 is 105.
The last such three-digit number divisible by 7 is 994.
∴ The AP is 105,112,119, ,994
Let n be the required number of terms Here, a = 105, d = 7 and n = 994
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 18
Thus, 128 numbers of 3-digits are divisible by 7.

Question 14.
How many multiples of 4 lie between 10 and 250?
Solution:
The first multiple of 4 beyond 10 is 12.
The multiple of 4 just below 250 is 248.
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 19
Thus, the required number of terms is 60.

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 15.
For what value of n, are the nth terms of two APs: 63,65,67 … and 3,10,17, …. equal?
Solution:
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 20
Thus, the 13th terms of the two given AP’s are equal.

Question 16.
Determine the AP whose third term is 16 and the 7th term exceeds the 5th term by 12.
Solution:
Let the first term = a and the common difference = d

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 17.
Find the 20th term from the last term of the AP : 3, 8, 13, …, 253.
Solution:
We have, the last term (l) = 253
Here, d = 8 – 3 = 5
Since, the nth term before the last term is given by l – (n – 1 )d
We have 20th term from the last term = l – (20 – 1) × 5 = 253 – 19 × 5 = 253 – 95 = 158

Question 18.
The sum of the 4th and 8th terms of an AP is 24 and the sum of the 6th and 10th terms is 44. Find the first three terms of the AP.
Solution:
Let the first term = a and the common difference = d
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 22

Solution:
Here, a = ₹ 5000 and d = ₹ 200
Let, in the nth year Subba Rao gets ₹ 7000.
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 23

NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2

Question 20.

Solution:
Here, a = ₹ 5 and d = ₹ 1.75
NCERT Class 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.2 24
Thus, the required number of weeks is 10.
