Correct question: If the first and last terms of A.P are 7 and 49 respectively. If the sum of all its terms is 420, find its common difference.

Answer:

\large{\underline{\boxed{\sf D = 3}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

  • a₁ = 7
  • last term = 49
  • Sum of all terms = 420

We know that;

Sₙ = \sf \dfrac{n}{2} [a + l]

⇒ 420 = \sf \dfrac{n}{2} [7 + 49]

⇒ 840 = n * 56

⇒ n = \sf \dfrac{840}{56}

⇒ n = 15

Also, we know ;

aₙ = a + (n - 1)d

⇒ 49 = 7 + (15 - 1)d

⇒ 14d = 49 - 7

⇒ 14d = 42

⇒ d = \sf \dfrac{42}{14}

⇒ d = 3

Hence, the common difference is 3.

Correct Question :-

➡If The First and last term of an AP are 7 and 49 respectively. If the sum of all its terms is 420 , Find its common difference.

Ans :-

➡Common Difference = 3

Given :-

➡First Term = 7

➡Last Term = 49

➡Sum = 420

To Find :-

➡Commom Difference

Solution :-

 =  > S _{n} =  \frac{n}{2} (a + l) \\  \\  =  > 420 =  \frac{n}{2} ( 7 + 49) \\  \\  =  > 420 =  \frac{n}{2}   \times  56 \\  \\  =  > n =  \frac{840}{56}  \\  \\  =  > n =  \fbox{15}

 =  > A _{n} = a + (n - 1)d \\  \\  =  > 49 = 7 + (15 - 1)d \\  \\  =  > 49 = 7 + 14d \\  \\  =  > d =  \frac{42}{14}  \\  \\  =  > d = 3

Hence ,Common Difference Of Given AP Is  \fbox{3}
