Let a and d be the first term and common difference of APHard Open in App Solution Verified by Toppr nth term of AP a n =a+(n−1)d ∴a 3 =a+(3−1)d=a+2d a 7 =a+(7−1)d=a+6d Given a 3 +a 7 =6 ∴(a+2d)+(a+6d)=6 ⇒2a+8d=6 ⇒a+4d=3....(1) Also given a 3 ×a 7 =8 ∴(a+2d)(a+6d)=8
⇒(3−4d+2d)(3−4d+6d)=8 [Using (1)]
⇒(3−2d)(3+2d)=8 ⇒9−4d 2 =8 ⇒4d 2 =1 ⇒d 2 = 4 1 ⇒d=± 2 1 When d= 2 1 a=3−4d=3−4× 2 1 =3−2=1 When d=− 2 1 a=3−4d=3+4× 2 1 =3+2=5 When a=1 & d= 2 1 S 16 = 2 16 [2×1+(16−1)× 2 1 ]=8(2+ 2 15 )=4×19=76 When a=5 & d=− 2 1 S 16 = 2 16 [2×5+(16−1)×(− 2 1 )]=8(10− 2 15 )=4×5=20
Thus, the sum of first 16 terms of the AP is 76 or 20.

The sum of the third and the seventh terms of an A.P is 6 and their product is 8. Find the sum of first sixteen terms of the A.P.
Open in App Solution We know that, = + (− 1) 3 = + (3 − 1) 3 = + 2 Similarly, 7 = + 6
Given that, 3 + 7 = 6
( + 2) + ( + 6) = 6 2 + 8 = 6 + 4 = 3 = 3 − 4 ()
Also, it is given that (3) × (7) = 8
( + 2) × (+ 6) = 8 From equation (),

Ex 5.4, 2 (Optional) The sum of the third and the seventh terms of an AP is 6 and their product is 8. Find the sum of first sixteen terms of the AP. We know that nth term of an AP is an = a + (n − 1)d Hence, 3rd term of AP = a3 = a + 2d and 7th term of AP = a7 = a + 6d Given Sum of third & seventh terms is 6 a3 + a7 = 6 a + 2d + a + 6d = 6 2a + 8d = 6 2(a + 4d) = 6 a + 4d = 6/2 a + 4d = 3 a3 + a7 = 6 a + 2d + a + 6d = 6 2a + 8d = 6 2(a + 4d) = 6 a + 4d = 6/2 a + 4d = 3 Also, Product of the third and seventh terms is 8 a3 × a7 = 8 (a + 2d) (a + 6d) = 8 From (1) a + 4d = 3 a = 3 − 4d (3 − 4d + 2d) (3 − 4d + 6d) = 8 (3 − 2d) (3 + 2d) = 8 (3)2 − (2d)2 = 8 9 – 4d2 = 8 4d2 = 1 (2d)2 = (1)2 2d = ± 1 d = ± 𝟏/𝟐 Finding value of a For d = 𝟏/𝟐 a = 3 − 4d a = 3 − 4(1/2) a = 3 − 2 a = 1 For d = (−𝟏)/𝟐 a = 3 − 4d a = 3 − 4((−1)/2) a = 3 + 2 a = 5 For d = (−𝟏)/𝟐 a = 3 − 4d a = 3 − 4((−1)/2) a = 3 + 2 a = 5 Therefore, when a = 1, d = 𝟏/𝟐 And when a = 5, d = (−𝟏)/𝟐 Now, we need to find the Sum of first Sixteen Terms Sum of n terms of an AP is Sn = 𝒏/𝟐 [𝟐𝒂+(𝒏 −𝟏)𝒅] Taking a = 1 and d = 𝟏/𝟐 S16 = 16/2 [(2" × 1" )+(16 −1)(1/2)] = 8 [2+15/2] = 8 [(4 + 15)/2] = 8 × 19/2 = 76 Taking a = 5 and d = (−𝟏)/𝟐 S16 = 16/2 [(2" × " 5)+(16 −1)((−1)/2)] = 8 [10−15/2] = 8 [(20 − 15)/2] = 8 × 5/2 = 20 Hence, If a = 1 and d = 𝟏/𝟐 , the sum of first sixteen terms of the AP is 76 and If a = 5 and d = (−𝟏)/𝟐, the sum of first sixteen terms of the AP is 20.
