Answer:
5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Savings every year are in an Arithmetic Progression (AP)
32, 36, 40, .....
First term, a = 32
Difference, d = 4
Let the total no. of terms for total savings = 200 be 'n'
Sum of n terms of an AP, S = n/2(2a + (n-1)d)
200 = n/2(64 + (n-1)4)
solving this you will get the quadratic equation
n² + 15n - 100 = 0
n² + 20n - 5n - 100 = 0
n(n + 20) - 5(n + 20) = 0
(n - 5)(n +20) = 100
n = 5 or -20
No. of terms can't be -ve
So, n = 5
Therefore, it will take 5 years for the savings to be Rs. 200
