A water tank has steps inside it. A monkey is sitting on the topmost step(i.e., the first step). The water level is at the ninth step. If the number of steps moved down is represented by negative integers and the number of steps moved up by positive integers, represent his moves in part (i) and (ii) by completing the following, (a) -3+2 -..= -8 (b) 4-2+...= 8. In (a) the sum (-8) represents going down by eight steps. So, what will the sum 8 in (b) represent?

The company can either hire a computer for Rs 2,000 per month or buy one for Rs 25,000. If the company has to use the computer for a long period, the company will pay such a high rent, that buying a computer will be cheaper. On the other hand, if the company has to use the computer for say, just one month, then hiring a computer will be cheaper. Find the number of months beyond which it will be cheaper to buy a computer.
