                   If the sum of first n terms of an A.P. is cn2, then sum of squares of these n terms is?
ans:n(4n2-1)c2/3

HOW?

                                        If a is 1st term and d is common difference, sum of n terms = (n/2) (2a + (n-1)d) = (2an-nd) + n2d

comparing this with cn2 we get : 2an-nd = 0  and  d = c    =>    a = c/2,  d = c

sum of squares of n terms = $\sum_{r=1}^{n}(a+(n-1)d)^{2}$

$=\sum_{r=1}^{n}\left( \frac{c}{2}+(n-1)c\right)^{2}$

$=\sum_{r=1}^{n}c^{2}\left( n^{2}-n+\frac{1}{4}\right)$

$=c^{2}\left( \sum_{r=1}^{n}n^{2}-\sum_{r=1}^{n}n+\sum_{r=1}^{n}\frac{1}{4}\right)$

$=c^{2}\left(\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}-\frac{n(n+1)}{2}+\frac{n}{4}\right)$

$=\frac{c^{2}n(4n^{2}-1)}{12}$

what is (x+3)(x -2)??

Hello Student, Please find the answer to your question (x + 3)(x – 2) = x^2+x-6 Hope that you will be satisfied with this

 Pankaj 11 months ago

absolutely correct. x(x – 2) + 3(x – 2) = x^2 – 2x + 3x – 6 = X^2 + x – 6 Hope that you both have understood now

 Pankaj 11 months ago

(x + 3)(x – 2) =x(x – 2) + 3(x – 2) = x^2 – 2x + 3x – 6 = X^2 + x – 6 Hope that you will understand now
