1
= [2a(m–n) +d(m2 – m – n2 + n) = n – m
2
1
= [2a(m–n) + d (m–n)(m +n–1)] = n – m
2
1
= [2a + d (m + n – 1)] = –1
2
Multiplying both sides by m + n
We get,
m+n
= [2a + (m + n – 1)d] = – (m + n)
2
= Sm+n = –(m+n)
4. (b)
(I) clearly statement 1 is false because they can have infinite solution (lines can be
coincident)
(II) Let two consecutive integers , + 1
2 + ( + 1)2 = 365 (A + B)2 = A2 + 2AB + B2 ; A = , B = 1
22 + 2 – 364 = 0
–b b2 – 4ac
Using shreedharacharya formula x =
2a
–2 4 – 4 2(–364)
=
2.2
–2 54
=
4
–2 + 54
On taking positive sign = = 13
4
–2–54
On taking negative sign = = –14
4
For = –14, consecutive integers are –14, –13
F = 13, consecutive integers are 13, 14
Hence statement (II) is false
5. (a)
y = anxn + an–1xn–1+ ……….. + a0 ………….(1)
Put x = 2 & y = 2 in equation (1)
2 = an2n + an–12n–1 + …………+ a0 …………..(2)
Put x = 4 & y = 5 in equation (1)
5 = an 4n + an–1 4n–1 + ……….+ an …………..(3)
From equation (3) – (2)
3 = an(4n – 2n) + an–1 (4n–1 – 2n–1) +…………+ 2a1
Odd = even
Not possible
No such polynomial exists
