2.
Sum of the first 100 terms, S(100)
= 2(100)2 + 3(100)
= 20300
Sum of the first 99 terms, S(99)
= 2(99)2 + 3(99)
= 19899
The 100th term
= S(100) - S(99)
= 20300 - 19899
= 401

4.
Consider the common ratio:
(x-6)/(x+9) = 4/(x-6)
(x-6)2 = 4(x+9)
x2-12x+36 = 4x+36
x2-16 = 0
x(x-16) = 0
x = 0 ooro x = 16

8.
Let a and d be the first term and the common difference.
The 3th term:
a + 2d = 25 ...... (1)
The 1oth term:
a + 9d = -3 ...... (2)
(2)-(1):
7d = -28
d = -4
Put d=-4 into (1):
a + 2(-4) = 25
a = 33
Ans: The first term is 33, and the common difference is -4.

In Q.4:
Consider the first two terms, common ratio = (x-6)/(x+9)
Consider the last two terms, common ratio = 4/(x-6)
