1. Find the sum of the following APs.

(i) 2, 7, 12, …. to 10 terms.

Solution:

For this A.P.
a = 2
d = 7-2 = 5
Number of term (n) = 10
As we know that,
S_n = [2a+(n-1)d]
S₁₀ = [2×2+(10-1)5]
S₁₀ = 5[4+45]
S₁₀ = 245

1. In which of the following situations, does the list of numbers involved make an arithmetic progression, and why?

(i) The taxi fare after each km when the fare is ₹15 for the first km and ₹8 for the each additional km.

Solution: Taxi fare for 1^st 1 km = ₹15.
Taxi fare for first 2 km = ₹15 + ₹8 = ₹23
Taxi fare for first 3 km = ₹23+₹8 = ₹31
Taxi fare for first 4 km = ₹31+₹8 = ₹39
Therefore, we observe that, 15, 23, 31, 39….. forms an A.P. because the common difference for each km is same i.e. 8.
Hence, the given situation makes an arithmetic progression.
