Given :–
- Raman shaved Rs. 5 in the first week of a year.
- Increased his weekly savindhan by Rs. 1.75 in the nth week.
- His weekly shaving becomes Rs. 20.75.
To Find :–
- Value of n.
Solution :–
• Shaving in the first week = Rs. 5
According to the question,
Increased Rs. 1.75.
• In the second week = 5 + 1.75 = Rs. 6.75
• In the third week = 6.75 + 1.75 = Rs. 8.50
Now, the series is 5, 6.75, 8.50.......
This is an A.P. because it's common difference is same.
Common difference = a₃ – a₂ = a₂ – a₁
- a₃ = 8.50
- a₂ = 6.75
- a₁ = 5
So,
⟹ 8.50 – 6.75 = 6.75 – 5
⟹ 1.75 = 1.75
- Common difference (d) = 1.75
Given that,
In the nth week, her saving becomes Rs. 20.75.
So,
- = 20.75
Formula Used :–
- = a + (n – 1)d
Here,
- a = 5
- d = 1.75
Now, put these value in the formula.
⟹ 20.75 = 5 + (n – 1)(1.75)
⟹ 20.75 – 5 = (n – 1)(1.75)
⟹ 15.75 = (n – 1)(1.75)
⟹ = n – 1
⟹ = n – 1
⟹ = n – 1
⟹ = n – 1
⟹ = n – 1
⟹ 9 = n – 1
⟹ 9 + 1 = n
⟹ 10 = n
Hence,
The value of n is 10.
Means, in the 10th week, his weekly shaving is Rs. 20.75.
