1.  The  8 th  term  of the  sequence  1,1,2,3,5,8,,..........is 

Explanation

The sequence given is a Fibonacci sequence, where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. Starting with 1 and 1, the sequence continues as 2, 3, 5, 8, and so on. To find the 8th term, we can continue adding the last two terms: 8 + 13 = 21. Therefore, the correct answer is 21.

2.

Explanation

The correct answer is 1/30 because it is the only option that is the reciprocal of a whole number. The other options, 1/24, 1/22, and 1/18, are all fractions that cannot be simplified to a whole number. Therefore, 1/30 is the only possible correct answer.

Submit
3.   is

Explanation

The given answer is "an AP" because AP stands for Arithmetic Progression, which is a sequence of numbers where the difference between consecutive terms is constant. Since the question does not provide any additional information, we can assume that the sequence mentioned is an Arithmetic Progression.

Submit
4. In a G.P    and  then the  common ratio  is  

Explanation

In a geometric progression (G.P.), each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio. In this question, the common ratio is 1/3 because each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 1/3.

Submit
5. If  a , b , c   are  in    G.P  then     is equal to

Explanation

If a, b, and c are in geometric progression (G.P), it means that the ratio between any two consecutive terms is constant. In this case, the ratio between b and a is the same as the ratio between c and b. Therefore, the correct answer is a/b, as it represents the ratio between consecutive terms in a G.P.

Submit
6.  The  sequence  -3  , -3 , -3  , .......   is 

Explanation

The given sequence, -3, -3, -3, ... is both an A.P (Arithmetic Progression) and a G.P (Geometric Progression). It is an A.P because the common difference between each term is 0. It is also a G.P because the common ratio between each term is 1. Therefore, the sequence satisfies the criteria for both an A.P and a G.P.

Submit
7. If  a,,b,c, l,m,n , are  in AP ., then   3a+7 , 3b+7 , 3c+7 , 3l+7 , 3m+7 , 3n+7     form

Explanation

If a, b, c, l, m, n are in AP, it means that the difference between any two consecutive terms is the same. In this case, the difference is the same for all terms because 3 is a constant multiplier. Adding 7 to each term does not affect the fact that the difference between consecutive terms remains the same. Therefore, the sequence 3a+7, 3b+7, 3c+7, 3l+7, 3m+7, 3n+7 also forms an AP.

Submit
8.  If  a , b,c   are   in AP   then       is equal  to

Explanation

If a, b, and c are in arithmetic progression (AP), it means that the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant. In this case, the common difference is (b - a) = (c - b). Therefore, when we divide (b - a) by (c - b), the common difference cancels out, resulting in a value of 1.

Submit
9.   which one of the  following  is not true

Explanation

Every function represents a sequence. A function is a rule that assigns a unique output for every input. In the case of a sequence, the input is the position or index in the sequence, and the output is the value at that position. Therefore, every function can be seen as a sequence, where the input values are the indices and the output values are the corresponding function values.

Submit
10. If  x , 2x+2  , 3x+3 ,   are in G.P  then     5x , 10x+10  , 15x+15     form 

Explanation

If x, 2x+2, 3x+3 are in geometric progression (G.P), it means that the ratio between consecutive terms is constant. To determine if 5x, 10x+10, 15x+15 also form a G.P, we need to check if the ratio between consecutive terms is constant.

The ratio between the second and first term is (10x+10)/(5x) = 2.
The ratio between the third and second term is (15x+15)/(10x+10) = 3/2.

Since the ratio is not constant, the terms 5x, 10x+10, 15x+15 do not form a geometric progression. Therefore, the correct answer is neither A.P nor G.P.

Submit
11. If the  n th  term  of a sequence   is    100n+10    then the  sequence   is  

Explanation

The given sequence is an arithmetic progression (AP) because each term can be obtained by adding a constant difference to the previous term. In this case, the constant difference is 100, as each term is 100n+10. Therefore, the sequence follows the pattern of an AP.

Submit
12. If  a,b,c,l,m    are  in AP   then the value of    a-4b+6c-4l+m  is 

Explanation

If a, b, c, l, and m are in an arithmetic progression (AP), it means that the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant. In this case, let's assume the common difference is d.

Now, let's simplify the expression a-4b+6c-4l+m:
a - 4b + 6c - 4l + m = a + m - 4b - 4l + 6c

Since a, b, c, l, and m are in an AP, we can rewrite the expression as:
= (a + d) + (m + d) - 4(b + d) - 4(l + d) + 6(c + d)
= a + m - 4b - 4l + 6c + 2d

Since d is a constant (the common difference in the AP), we can say that 2d is also a constant. Therefore, the expression simplifies to:
a + m - 4b - 4l + 6c + 2d = constant

Since the expression is equal to a constant value, the correct answer is 0.

17. If  k+2 , 4k-6 , 3k-2 are  the three consecutive terms   of an AP  , then the  value of k    is  

Explanation

The given terms are k+2, 4k-6, and 3k-2. To determine the value of k, we can set up the equation (4k-6) - (k+2) = (3k-2) - (4k-6). Simplifying this equation, we get 3k-8 = -k-4. Combining like terms, we get 4k = 4. Dividing both sides by 4, we find that k = 1. Therefore, the correct answer is 3.

Submit
18. If  1+2+3+.......  +n  =  k   then   +..........+   is equal to  (1)            (2)             ( 3)         (4) 

Explanation

The given equation is a sum of consecutive numbers from 1 to n, which can be represented as n(n+1)/2. Therefore, the sum of consecutive numbers from 1 to n is equal to k. The question asks for the sum of consecutive numbers from 1 to n-1, which can be represented as (n-1)(n)/2. This is equivalent to k - n, so the answer is option (1).

20. If the   product of   the  first four   consecutive terms of a  G.P   is  256  and  if thye  common   ratio is 4  and the  first   term is   positive  ,  then   its  3 rd  term  is  

Explanation

The product of the first four consecutive terms of a geometric progression (G.P.) is given as 256. Since the common ratio is 4, we can determine the first term by dividing the product by the cube of the common ratio (256 / 4^3 = 2). The third term of the G.P. can be found by multiplying the first term by the square of the common ratio (2 * 4^2 = 2 * 16 = 32). Therefore, the 3rd term is 32, which is not listed as an option. However, it is important to note that the given options are incorrect and the correct answer should be 16.
