Shamshad Ali buys a scooter for $Rs$ $22000 .$ He pays $Rs$ $4000$ cash and agrees to pay the balance in annual instalment of $Rs$ $1000$ plus $10 \%$ interest on the unpaid amount. How much will the scooter cost him?
It is given that Shamshad Ali buys a scooter for $Rs.$ $22000$ and pays $Rs.$ $4000$ in cash.
$\therefore $ Unpaid amount $=$ $Rs.$ $22000-$ $Rs.$ $4000=$ $Rs.$ $18000$
According to the given condition, the interest paid annually is
$10 \%$ of $18000,10 \%$ of $17000,10 \%$ of $16000 \ldots \ldots 10 \%$ of $1000$
Thus, total interest to be paid
$=10 \%$ of $18000+10 \%$ of $17000+10 \%$ of $16000+\ldots \ldots+10 \%$ of $1000$
$=10 \%$ of $(18000+17000+16000+\ldots \ldots+1000)$
$=10 \%$ of $(1000+2000+3000+\ldots \ldots+18000)$
Here, $1000,2000,3000 \ldots .18000$ forms an $A.P.$ with first term and common difference both equal to $1000$
Let the number of terms be $n$
$\therefore 18000=1000+(n-1)(1000)$
$\Rightarrow n=18$
$\therefore 1000+2000+\ldots .+18000=\frac{18}{2}[2(1000)+(18-1)(1000)]$
$=9[2000+17000]$
$=171000$
Total interest paid $=10 \%$ of $(18000+17000+16000+\ldots .+1000)$
$=10 \%$ of $Rs .171000= Rs .17100$
$\therefore$ cost of scooter $= Rs .22000+ Rs .17100= Rs .39100$
${7^{th}}$ term of an $A.P.$ is $40$, then the sum of first $13$ terms is
Let $\alpha, \beta$ and $\gamma$ be three positive real numbers. Let $f ( x )=\alpha x ^{5}+\beta x ^{3}+\gamma x , x \in R \quad$ and $\quad g : R \rightarrow R$ be such that $g(f(x))=x$ for all $x \in R$. If $a_{1}, a_{2}, a_{3}, \ldots, a_{n}$ be in arithmetic progression with mean zero, then the value of $f\left(g\left(\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} f\left(a_{i}\right)\right)\right)$ is equal to.
For $p, q \in R$, consider the real valued function $f ( x )=( x - p )^{2}- q , x \in R$ and $q >0$. Let $a _{1}, a _{2}, a _{3}$ and $a _{4}$ be in an arithmetic progression with mean $P$ and positive common difference. If $\left| f \left( a _{ i }\right)\right|=500$ for all $i=1,2,3,4$, then the absolute difference between the roots of $f ( x )=0$ is.
Between $1$ and $31, m$ numbers have been inserted in such a way that the resulting sequence is an $A. P.$ and the ratio of $7^{\text {th }}$ and $(m-1)^{\text {th }}$ numbers is $5: 9 .$ Find the value of $m$
If $f(x + y,x - y) = xy\,,$ then the arithmetic mean of $f(x,y)$ and $f(y,x)$ is
