    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

First term = a

Common difference = d

Given: a + 5d = 2        . (1)

Product (P) = (a1a5a4) = a (a + 4d) (a + 3d)

Using (1)

P = (2 – 5d) (2 – d) (2 – 2d)

-> = (2 – 5d) (2 –d) (– 2) + (2 – 5d) (2 – 2d) (– 1) + (– 5) (2 – d) (2 – 2d)

d P d d = –2 [ (d – 2) (5d – 2) + (d – 1) (5d – 2) + (d – 1) (5d – 2) + 5 (d – 1) (d – 2)]

= –2 [15d2 – 34d + 16]

d = 8 5 o r 2 3

at  ( 8 5 ) , product attains maxima

-> d = 1.6

S20 = 2 0 2 [2a + 19d] = 790

2a + 19d = 79              . (1)

S 1 0 1 0 2 [ 2 a + 9 d ] = 1 4 5

2a + 9d = 29                . (2)

from (1) and (2) a = –8, d = 5

S 1 5 S 5 = 1 5 2 [ 2 a + 1 4 d ] 5 2 [ 2 a + 4 d ]

= 1 5 2 [ 1 6 + 7 0 ] 5 2 [ 1 6 + 2 0 ]

so common terms A.P.

3, a, b, c are in A.P.

a – 3 = b – a                                                 (common diff.)

2a = b + 3

and 3, a – 1, b + 1 are in G.P.

a 1 3 = b + 1 a 1              

a2 + 1 – 2a = 3b + 3

a2 – 8a + 7 = 0                         &n
