AP Solved Problems


Introduction for arithmetic progression:
A   Arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in that every term except the first is attained by adding a permanent number to the immediately before term. This Permanent number is known as the common difference. For an example in the series 2, 4, 6, 8, 10... Each term apart from the first is attained by adding 2 to the previous term. The progressions are called arithmetic progression.

Understanding Arithmetic Mean Formula is always challenging for me but thanks to all math help websites to help me out.

Arithmetic progression (AP) solved problems:


Solved problem 1: Find out the arithmetic progression (AP) for common difference then the next 3 terms of the arithmetic progression is 1, 4, 7...

Solution:

The common difference of AP  d = 4 – 1 = 3
General form of AP are  a, a + d,a + 2d, a + 3d ....

Next three terms are a + 3d, a + 4d,a + 5d

a + 3d = 1 + 3(3) = 1 + 9 = 10

a + 4d = 1 + 4(3) = 1 +12 = 13

a + 5d = 1 + 5(3) = 1 + 15 = 16

Therefore the next 3 terms are 10, 13, and 16.

Solved problem 2: Find out the arithmetic progression (AP) for 12th term of an A.P. 6, 2, –2...

Solution:

Assume the arithmetic progression in the form a, a + d, a + 2d ...
where, a = 6, d = 2 – 6 = –4, n = 12
tn = a + (n–1) d
t12 = 6 + (12 – 1) (–4) = 6 + (11 * –4) = 6 – 44 = – 38
The 12th term is –38

Solved problem 3: Find out the number of integers between 60 and 600 that are divisible by 9.

Solution:
Let us take the 1st number divisible by 9 among 60 and 600 is 63. The last number divisible by 9 that is 594. 594 is less than 600.
The series is 63, 72, 81... 594.

Here AP is 594.
Where, a = 63, d = 72 – 63 = 9

tn= 594 `=>`   a + (n –1) d = 594
`=>` 63 + (n–1) 9 = 594 `=>` (n–1) 9 = 594 – 63 = 531
`=>` n – 1 = 59 `=>` n = 60
Among 60 and 600 which are divisible by 9 is 60 integers.

Having problem with 6th grade math help online keep reading my upcoming posts, i will try to help you.

Arithmetic progression (AP) practice solved Problems:


1. If a bank clerk is fixed in the salary 3200 – 85 – 4900, when will he achieve his maximum?

Sol: The clerk will achieve his maximum salary in his 21st year of service.

2. The nth term of a series is 7n – 3. Demonstrate that it is an AP and find out the 1st term and the common difference.

Sol: 1st term is 4, Common difference is 7.

3. Find the angles of a triangle whch are in arithmetic progression. If it is greatest angle equals the calculation of the other two, find out the angles.

Sol: The angles of the triangles are 30°, 60°, and 90°
