A) 14th element B) 9th element
C) 12th element D) 7th element
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 12th element

Explanation:

If we consider the third term to be ‘x”
The 15th term will be (x + 12d)
6th term will be (x + 3d)
11th term will be (x + 8d) and
13th term will be (x + 10d).
Thus, as per the given condition, 2x + 12d = 3x + 21d.Or x + 9d = 0.
x + 9d will be the 12th term.

Thus, 12th term of the A.P will be zero.

A) 50000 B) 40500
C) 5040 D) 50400
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 50400

Explanation:

In the word 'CORPORATION', we treat the vowels OOAIO as one letter.

 

Thus, we have CRPRTN (OOAIO).

 

This has 7 (6 + 1) letters of which R occurs 2 times and the rest are different.

 

Number of ways arranging these letters =7!/2!= 2520.

 

Now, 5 vowels in which O occurs 3 times and the rest are different, can be arranged in 3!/5!= 20 ways.

 

Required number of ways = (2520 x 20) = 50400.
