For what value of n, are the nth terms of two APs: 63, 65, 67, . . . and 3, 10, 17, . . . equal?
Yearly income of Subba Rao is following :
5000, 5200, 5400, 5600...............
Here, a = 5000, d = 200, Tn = 7000
We know that, Tn = a + (n – 1) d
⇒ 7000 = 5000 + (n – 1) 200
⇒ 7000 = 5000 + 200n – 200
⇒ 7000 = 4800 + 200n
⇒ 200n = 2200
⇒ n = 11
Hence, in the 11th year, his income reached by Rs. 7000.
