Let `a_(n)` be the nth term an A.P. if `sum_(r=1)^(100) a_(2r)=alpha and sum_(r=1)^(100)a_(2r-1)=beta`, them the common difference of the A.P., isA. `(alpha-beta)/(100)`B. `beta-alpha`C. `(alpha-beta)/(200)`D. `alpha-beta`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
We have,
`alpha=underset(r=1)overset(100)suma_(2r)andbetaunderset(r=1)overset(100)suma_(2r-1)`
`:." "alpha-beta=underset(r=1)sum100(a_(2r)-a_(2r-1))`
`rArr" "alpha-beta=100d`, where d is the common difference
`rArr" "d=(alpha-beta)/(100)`
