DPP Class 10 Maths

The document contains a set of problems related to Arithmetic Progressions (A.P.) for Class 10 students. It includes questions on identifying A.P.s, finding common differences, calculating specific terms, and solving for sums of terms. Additionally, it covers applications of A.P. in real-world scenarios, such as interest calculations and production rates.

Q.1 Which of the following sequences are A.P.s? If they form an A.P., find the common
difference d and write the next three terms:

Q.9 A sum of Rs. 1000 is invested at 8% simple interest per year. Calculate the

interest at the end of each year. Do these interests form an AP? If so, find the interest at
the end of 30 years making use of this fact.
