Question 7.
Show that the sum of (m + n)th and (m – n)th term of an A.P. is equal to twice the mth term.
Solution:
The nth term of an A.P is Tn = a + (n – 1) d
Tm+n = a + (m + n – 1) d
Tm-n = a + (m – n – 1) d
Tm+n + Tm-n = a + (m + n – 1) d + a + (m – n – 1)d
= 2a + [m + n – 1 + m – n – 1) d
= 2a + [2m – 2] d
= 2a + 2 (m – 1) d
= 2 [a + (m – 1] d
Tm+n + Tm-n = 2Tm
Hence the sum of the ( m + n)th term and ( m – n)th term of A.P is equal to twice the mth term.

Question 8.
A man repays an amount of ₹ 3250 by paying ₹ 20 in the first month and then increases the payment by ₹ 15 per month. How long will it take him to clear the amount?
Solution:
a = 20, d = 15, Sn = 3250 to find n.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Binomial Theorem, Sequences and Series Ex 5.3 16
3n2 + 5n – 1300 = 0
3n2 – 60n + 65n – 1300 = 0
3n (n – 20) + 65 (n – 20) = 0
(3n + 65) (n – 20) = 0
n = – 65/3 or 20
n = – 65/3 is not possible
∴ n = 20
So he will take 20 months to clear the amount.

Question 9.
In a race, 20 balls are placed in a line at intervals of 4 meters with the first ball 24 meters away from the starting point. A contestant is required to bring the balls back to the starting place one at a time. How far would the contestant run to bring back all balls?
Solution:
t1 = 24 × 2 = 48, t2 =48 + 8 = 56 or (24 + 4)2, t3 =(28 + 4)2 = 64 which is an A.P.
Here a = 48,
d = 56 – 48 = 8

The contestant has to run 2480 m to bring all the balls.

Question 10.
The number of bacteria in a certain culture doubles every hour. If there were 30 bacteria present in the culture originally, how many bacteria will be present at the end of the 2nd hour, 4th hour, and nth hour?
Solution:
Number of bacteria present initially = 30
Number of bacteria at the end of 1 hour = 2 × 30 = 60
Number of bacteria at the end of two hours = 2 × 60 = 120
Number of bacteria at the end of three hours = 2 × 120 = 240
Number of bacteria at the end of four hours = 2 × 240 = 480
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Maths Guide Chapter 5 Binomial Theorem, Sequences and Series Ex 5.3 18
∴ The sequence of a number of bacterias at the end of every hour is
30, 60, 120, 240, 480, …………………………..
30, 30 × 2, 30 × 4, 30 × 8, 30 × 16, …………………
30, 30 × 2, 30 × 22, 30 × 23, 30 × 24, …………………
This sequence is a Geometric sequence with first term a = 30, common ratio r = 2
Number of bacteria at the end of nth hour tn+1 = a. rn
tn+1 = 30(2n)
Number of bacteria at the end of 2nd hour = 120
Number of bacteria at the end of 4th hours = 480
Number of bacteria at the end of nth hour = 30(2n)

It was found that on each day, the virus which caused the disease spread in Geometric Progression. The amount of infectious virus particle gets doubled each day, being 5 particles on the first day. Find the day when the infectious virus particles just grow over 1,50,000 units?
Solution:
a = 5, r = 2, tn >150000, To find ‘n’

Question 1.
If the ratio of the sums of m terms and n terms of an A.P. be m2 : n2, prove that the ratio of its mth and nth terms is (2m – 1) : (2n – 1).
Solution:
Let ‘a’ be the first term and d be the common difference of A.P.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Binomial Theorem, Sequences and Series Ex 5.3 23
⇒ 2an + (mn – n)d = 2am + (mn – m)d
⇒ 2an – 2am = (mn – m – mn + n)d
⇒ 2a(n – m) = (n – m)d ⇒ d = 2a, [n – m ≠ 0, as n ≠ m]
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Binomial Theorem, Sequences and Series Ex 5.3 232
Hence, the required ratio is (2m – 1) : (2n – 1)
