Q12:
Two APs have the same common difference. The difference between their 100th terms is 100, what is the difference between their 1000th terms?
Solution :
Given:
Let the two Arithmetic Progressions (APs) be denoted as $AP_1$ and $AP_2$.
Let the first term of $AP_1$ be $a_1$ and the first term of $AP_2$ be $a_2$.
Let the common difference for both APs be $d$ (since it is given that they have the same common difference).
The difference between their 100th terms is $100$. That is, $a_{100} - A_{100} = 100$, where $a_{100}$ is the 100th term of $AP_1$ and $A_{100}$ is the 100th term of $AP_2$.
To Find:
The difference between their 1000th terms, i.e., $a_{1000} - A_{1000}$.
Step 1: Expressing the $n^{th}$ term of an AP
The formula for the $n^{th}$ term of an Arithmetic Progression is given by:
$a_n = a + (n - 1)d$
[Where $a$ is the first term, $n$ is the position of the term, and $d$ is the common difference.]
Step 2: Formulating the equation for the 100th terms
For $AP_1$: $a_{100} = a_1 + (100 - 1)d = a_1 + 99d$
For $AP_2$: $A_{100} = a_2 + (100 - 1)d = a_2 + 99d$
Given that $a_{100} - A_{100} = 100$, we substitute the expressions:
$(a_1 + 99d) - (a_2 + 99d) = 100$
$a_1 + 99d - a_2 - 99d = 100$
$a_1 - a_2 = 100$ --- (Equation 1)
Step 3: Formulating the expression for the 1000th terms
For $AP_1$: $a_{1000} = a_1 + (1000 - 1)d = a_1 + 999d$
For $AP_2$: $A_{1000} = a_2 + (1000 - 1)d = a_2 + 999d$
Step 4: Calculating the difference between the 1000th terms
Difference = $a_{1000} - A_{1000}$
Difference = $(a_1 + 999d) - (a_2 + 999d)$
Difference = $a_1 + 999d - a_2 - 999d$
Difference = $a_1 - a_2$
Step 5: Substituting the value from Equation 1
Since we found in Equation 1 that $a_1 - a_2 = 100$, we substitute this value into our result:
Difference = $100$
Final Answer: The difference between their 1000th terms is 100.
