sum of first 49 terms of an ap is 1274 find its 25th term
Answers
Answer:
25th term is 26
Step-by-step explanation:
S49=1274
by formula,
Sn = n/2[2a+(n-1)d]
1274=49/2[2a+(49-1)d]
1274×2=49[2a+48d]
2548/49=2a+48d
52=2a+48d
multiply 2 to both sides
26=a+24d____(1)
n=25
tn=a+(n-1)d
t25=a+(25-1)d
t25=a+24d
t25=26
Answer:
The 25th term of the A.P is t₂₅ = a+24d = 26
Option (C) is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Arithmetic progression:
- Arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in order, where the difference between any two consecutive numbers is constant.
- The Arithmetic progression is shortly denoted by A.P
- The terms in A.P are in the form of
a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d,.........
where a is the first term
d is the difference between the terms
nth term of A.P = tₙ = a+(n-1)d
Sum of n terms = Sₙ = (n/2)[2a+(n-1)d]
- Given,
Sum of first 49 terms S₄₉ = 1274
Sum of first n terms = Sₙ = (n/2)[2a+(n-1)d]
here n = 49
S₄₉ = (49/2)[2a+(49-1)d]
1274 = (49/2)[2a+48d}
1274 = (49/2)2(a+24d)
1274 = 49(a+24d)
1274/49=a+24d
26 = a+24d
a+24d = 26 -------------(i)
Since the 25th term = t₂₅ = a+24d -----------(ii)
By equating (i) and (ii) we get the 25th term
Hence, 25th term = t₂₅ = a+24d = 26
