Read the following Passage. Understand the Mathematical concept in it and answer the questions that follow. Each question carries 1 score. The common difference of the arithmetic sequence 15,14,13,12,...... is 14-15=-1 . First terms of the sequence is 15 and the 15th term is 15+14x-1=15-14=1 . Similarly the 4th term is 12 and the 12^(th) term is 4. Its 16th term is, x_(16)=15+15x-1=15-15=0 . So the sum of the first 31 terms is also zero. that is if the n^(th) is m, then the mth term is n and the (m+n)^(th) term is zero.
