27. If the ratio of the sum of the first n terms of two A.Ps is (7n + 1): (4n + 27), then find the ratio of their9terms. |

Answer» Sn/sn =7n+1/4n+27 (given) Where Sn is sum of n terms of 1st AP and sn is sum of n terms of second AP. Sn =n/2(2A +(n-1)D) (A =first term, D =common difference) (Sum of AP formula) sn=n/2(2a+(n-1)d) (a=first term, d=common difference) (Sum of AP formula) Sn/sn=(2A+(n-1)D)/(2a+(n-1)d) 7n+1 /4n+27 = (2A+(n-1)D) / (2a+(n-1)d) As, we have to find ratio of their 9th term, let n =2(9)-1=17 So, equation=> 7(17)+1/4(17)+27=2A+(16D)/2a+16d 120/95 =A+8D /a+8d So, T9/t9 =120/95=24/19 Where T9 is 9th term of first AP and t9 is 9th term of second AP.
