Q.2 for an A.P. show that   t_m +t_(2n+m) =2t_(m+n)   −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−  Let the first term and common differnce  are  a  and   d    respectively.  t_m =a+(m−1)d  t_(2n+m) =a+(2n+m−1)d  t_(m+n) =a+(m+n−1)d    LHS: t_m +t_(2n+m)          =( a+(m−1)d )+( a+(2n+m−1)d )          =2a+(m−1+2n+m−1)d          =2a+(2m+2n−2)d         =2[ a+(m+n−1)d ]         =2 t_(m+n)         =RHS  Proved.

Q.3  Maximum sum of   40+38+36+34+32+........  −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−  Maximum sum is  40+38+36+......+2  Because the next term 0 doesn′t affect the sum and after it  are negative terms which decrease the sum.  l=last term=40+(n−1)(−2)=2 [n is number of terms ]                          40−2n+2=2                            n=20                         S_n =(n/2)(a+l)                        S_(20) =((20)/2)(40+2)=420  MAXimum Sum is 420

The series contains even numbers:  40,38,36....So last positive term is even number 2  After that is 0,which doesn′t affect the sum  and after 0 negative even numbers come,which  will cause to decrease the sum.S maximum sum  is 40+38+36+...+2.  Upto 2 the sum is increasing.
