MCQ 11 Mark
$11^{th}$ term of an AP: $– 3,$ $-\frac{1}{2}$ $, 2, . . .$ is $...........$
  • A
    $28$
  • $22$
  • C
    $-38$
  • D
    $-48\frac{1}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$22$
We have given the AP: $– 3,$ $-\frac{1}{2}$, $2, . . .$
Here, $a = - 3,$ $d = a_2-a_1$ d = $\frac{-1}{2}-(-3)=\frac{-1}{2}+3=\frac{-1+6}{2}=\frac{5}{2}$ and $n = 11$
We know that, $a_n$ = a + (n – 1)d
Or, $a_{11}$ = - 3 + (11 – 1)$\times\frac{5}{2}$
$= - 3 + 10$$\times\frac{5}{2}$
$= -3 + 5$ $\times$ $5$
$= - 3 + 25$
$a_{11}$$= 22$

MCQ 21 Mark
$30^{th}$ term of an AP: $10, 7, 4, ......$ is $..............$
  • A
    $97$
  • B
    $77$
  • $-77$
  • D
    $-87$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$-77$
We have AP: $10, 7, 4,...$
Here, $a = 10, d = 7 - 10 = - 3$ and $n = 30$
We know:
$a_n$ $= a + (n - 1)d$
or, $a_{30}$ $= 10 + (30 - 1)(-3)$
$= 10 + 29(-3)$
$= 10 - 87$
$a_{30}$ $= -77$

Answer
Correct option: C.
$\sqrt{162}$
Common difference $(d)$ of $A.P. \sqrt{18}, \sqrt{50}$, $\sqrt{95}, \ldots$, is given by
$\sqrt{50}-\sqrt{18}=\sqrt{2 \times 25}-\sqrt{2 \times 9}=5 \sqrt{2}-3 \sqrt{2}=2 \sqrt{2}$
$\therefore$ Fourth term$, a_4=a+3 d=\sqrt{18}+3 \times(2 \sqrt{2})$

The value of $a_{30}-a_{20}$ for the A.P. $2,7,12,17, \ldots$ is
  • A
    100
  • B
    10
  • 50
  • D
    20
Answer
Correct option: C.
50
(c) : Given A.P. is $2,7,12,17, \ldots .$.
Here, $a=2, d=7-2=5$
Since $n^{\text {th }}$ term of an A.P. is $a_n=a+(n-1) d$
$
\therefore a_{30}=a+29 d=2+29(5)=147
$
and $a_{20}=a+19 d=2+19(5)=97$
Now, $a_{30}-a_{20}=147-97=50$
