Read the statements carefully and select the correct option.
Statement-1: If there are `(2n + 1)` terms in an A.P., then the ratio of the sum of odd terms and the sum of even terms is `(n + 1): n`.
Statement-II : If `S_(n)` the sum of first n terms of an A.P. is given by `S_(n)= 5n^2+ 3n` then its `n^(th)` term is `10n - 2`.

A

Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true.

B

Both Statement-I and Statement-II are false.

C

Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false.

D

Statement-I is false but Statement-II is true.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both statements provided. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement-1 Statement-1 claims that if there are \( (2n + 1) \) terms in an A.P. (Arithmetic Progression), then the ratio of the sum of odd terms to the sum of even terms is \( (n + 1) : n \). 1. **Identify the terms in the A.P.**: - The first term is \( a \) and the common difference is \( d \). - The terms can be expressed as: - Odd terms: \( a, a + 2d, a + 4d, \ldots \) (total \( n + 1 \) terms) - Even terms: \( a + d, a + 3d, a + 5d, \ldots \) (total \( n \) terms) 2. **Calculate the sum of odd terms**: - The sum of the first \( n + 1 \) odd terms: \[ S_{\text{odd}} = \frac{(n + 1)}{2} \times (2a + 2nd) = (n + 1)(a + nd) \] 3. **Calculate the sum of even terms**: - The sum of the first \( n \) even terms: \[ S_{\text{even}} = \frac{n}{2} \times (2(a + d) + (n - 1) \cdot 2d) = n(a + d + (n - 1)d) = n(a + nd) \] 4. **Find the ratio of the sums**: \[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{S_{\text{odd}}}{S_{\text{even}}} = \frac{(n + 1)(a + nd)}{n(a + nd)} = \frac{n + 1}{n} \] This confirms that the ratio of the sum of odd terms to the sum of even terms is indeed \( (n + 1) : n \). ### Step 2: Analyze Statement-II Statement-II states that if \( S_n = 5n^2 + 3n \), then the \( n^{th} \) term is \( 10n - 2 \). 1. **Find the \( n^{th} \) term**: - The \( n^{th} \) term \( T_n \) can be found using the formula: \[ T_n = S_n - S_{n-1} \] - First, calculate \( S_{n-1} \): \[ S_{n-1} = 5(n-1)^2 + 3(n-1) = 5(n^2 - 2n + 1) + 3n - 3 = 5n^2 - 10n + 5 + 3n - 3 = 5n^2 - 7n + 2 \] 2. **Calculate \( T_n \)**: \[ T_n = S_n - S_{n-1} = (5n^2 + 3n) - (5n^2 - 7n + 2) = 3n + 7n - 2 = 10n - 2 \] This confirms that the \( n^{th} \) term is indeed \( 10n - 2 \). ### Conclusion Both statements are true. Therefore, the correct option is that both Statement-1 and Statement-2 are true.
