Q58 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (27 Jul Shift 2) · Mathematics

Let A=n∈N∣n2≤n+10,000, B=3k+1∣k∈N and C=2k∣k∈N, then the sum of all the elements of the set A∩B-C is equal to ________.

Correct answer: 832

Solution

We have, A=n∈N∣n2≤n+10,000,B=3k+1∣k∈N and C=2k∣k∈N,

B≡4,7,10,13,16,19,……

C≡2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,20,……

B-C≡7,13,19,…97,…

Now, n2-n≤100×100

⇒nn-1≤100×100

⇒A=1,2,…,100

So, A∩B-C=7,13,19,…,97

Let Sn=7+13+19+…+97

Clearly, the terms are in arithmetic progression. Here, a=7 and d=13-7=6 and l=97

⇒l=a+n-1d=97 where n is the number of terms.

⇒7+n-16=97

⇒n-16=90

⇒n-1=15

⇒n=16

Hence, sum Sn=7+13+19+…+97

Sn=n2a+l

Sn=1627+97

=832.

Hence, the correct answer is 832.
