QJEEM19Mac1bd: JEE Main 2019 Mathematics - Class 11 JEEM19Mac1bd Solution: Let the sum of the first n terms of a non-constant A.P., a 1 ,…

Let the sum of the first n terms of a non-constant A.P., a1, a2, a3, ..... be 50n+n(n−7)2A, where A is a constant. If d is the common difference of this A.P., then the ordered pair (d, a50) is equal to

Multiple Choice Options

  • A (A, 50+45A)
  • B (50, 50+45A)
  • C (A, 50+46A)
  • D (50, 50+46A)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Sn = 50n+n(n−7)2A

We know, nth tem

Tn = Sn - Sn - 1

= 50n+n(n−7)2A - 50(n−1)−(n−1)(n−8)2A

= 50 + A2[n2−7n−n2+9n−8]

= 50 + A(n - 4)

We also know, common difference

d = Tn - Tn - 1

= 50 + A(n - 4) - 50 - A(n - 5)

= A

And T50 = 50 + A(50 - 4)

= 50 + 46A

∴ (d, a50) = (A, 50+46A)
