In an AP if the sum of 4th and 8th terms is 70 and its 15th term is 80 then find the sum of its first 25 terms some one

answer fast plzzzzzz its urgent

let the first term and the common difference of AP be a and d respectively.

4th term of the AP = a+(4-1)d=a+3d

8th term of AP = a+(8-1)d=a+7d

therefore

15th term = 80

therefore

a+(15-1)d=80

a+14d=80.......(2)

solving (1) and (2):

-9d=-45

d=45/9=5

a+5*5=35

a+25=35

a=35-25=10

thus the first term is 10 and the common difference is 5.

sum of n terms =

sum of 25 terms =

hope this helps you.

4the term +8 th term=70         and 15 th term=80

a+3d+a+7d=70

2a+10d=70

a+5d=35

on equating

a+5d=35

a+14d=80

d=5

and a=5

sum of first 25 terms=n/2(2a+(n-1)d)

=25/2(10+24*5)

=25/2(10+120)

25(65)

=1625

therefore the sum of 25 terms is 1625

hope this helps u

a4+a8=70

a+3d+a+7d=70

2a+10d=70

a+5d=35 ..........(eq.1)

 

a15=80

a+14d=80 ........(eq. 2)

 

solving eq 1 and 2 by elimination method

-9d=-45

d=5

a+5d=35

a+25=35

a=10

 

s25=25/2{20+(24)5}

=25/2(20+120)

=25/2(140)

=25X70

therefore s25=1750

a4 + a8 = 70

a + 3d + a + 7d = 70

2a + 10d = 70

2[a + 5d] = 70

a + 5d = 35  .....(1)

Also, a = 80

a + 14d = 80  .......(2)

Subtract (1) from (2)

a + 14d - a - 5d = 80 - 35

9d = 45

d = 45/9

d = 5

By putting value of d in (1) we get,

a + 5[5] = 35

a + 25 = 35

a = 35 - 25

a = 10

S25 = 25/2 [ 2(10) + (25-1)5 ]

S25 = 25/2 [20 + 120]

S25 = 25/2 x 140

S25 = 25 x 70

S25 = 1750
