the sum of 3rd and 9th term of A.P is 8. find the sum of 1st 11 terms of A.P
a)33 b)22 c)44 d)55
Read Solution (Total 12)
-
- A.P. series is a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d, a+4d,..............nth terms
where a = first term
d = common difference
We have to given,
sum of 3rd and 9th terms = 8
(a+2d)+(a+8d) = 8
2a+10d = 8
a+5d = 4.............(1)
formula, Sum of 1st 11 terms of AP
S = n[ 2a+(n-1)d ]/2
=11[ 2a+(11-1)d ]/2
=11[a+5d]
=11[4] ( from eq. ...(1) )
S = 44 ans. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(0)
- (a+2d)+(a+8d)=8
2a+10d=8,
now, sum=11/2[2a+(11-1)d]
=11/2*8

- 44 is the correct answer
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 3rd term = a+2d
9th term = a+8d
sum =2a+10d
2a+10d=8
sum of 11 terms= (n(2a+(n-1)d))/2
so sum = (11*8)/2
answer =44 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- A/Q t3+t9=8
(a+2d)+ (a+8d)=8
2a+10d=8
Sn=n*(2a+(n-1)d)/2
S11=11(2a+10d)/2
=11*8/2
=44 Ans

- Ans: 44
t3=a+2d
t9=a+8d
t3+t9=2a+10d
sum of 11 terms= 11/2*(2a+10d)
s11= 11/2*8 =44 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 44
as terms r like -1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
and by summing 11terms we get 44 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- t3 + t9 =8 ; (a+2d)+(a+8d)=8; 2a+10d=8; s11=11/2*(2a+10d)=11/2*8=44
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 3rd term is a+2d
9th term is a+8d
sum of 3rd and 9th term is 8
i.e 2a+10d=8
sum first 11 terms is=n/2*(2a+(n-1)*d)
=11/2*(2a+10d)
=11/2*8
=44 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
