Let the first term be a and the common difference be b. So, by the given condition:- t24=2 x t10 --> a + 23 b = 2 ( a + 9b) = 2a + 18b. This gives: a = 5b. So, the 72nd term: t72 = a +71b = 5b + 71b = 76b. and the 34th term: t34 = a + 33b = 5b + 33b = 38b = 76b/2 = t72/2. So, the 72nd term is twice...

A bag contains 5 white and 3 black balls, and 4 balls are successively drawn out and not replaced. Find the probability that they are alternatively of different colors.
it can be in two ways-( white, black, white., black.) or ( black, white, black, white). in first case, the probability is=(5/8)X(3/7)X(4/6)X(2/5)=1/14. IN SECOND CASE, IT IS=(3/8)X(5/7)X(2/6)X(4/5)=1/14. SO THE PROBABILITY IS=(1/14)+1/14)=1/7
