An app earns (250) rupees on the first day and the income increases by (35) rupees each next day. What will be the income on the (11)th day?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (600)

The direct answer is B: 600 rupees. The daily incomes form an arithmetic progression because the amount increases by the same number, 35 rupees, each day. The first term is \\(a=250\\), the common difference is \\(d=35\\), and the required term number is \\(n=11\\). Use \\(a_n=a+(n-1)d\\). Thus, \\(a_{11}=250+(11-1)\\times35=250+10\\times35=250+350=600\\). Option A, 565, would result from using only nine increases, so it is too small. Option B is correct because there are ten increases from day 1 to day 11. Option C, 635, uses one extra increase and is the income for day 12. Option D, 670, uses still more increases and is not the eleventh-day value. The common mistake is multiplying the difference by 11 instead of by 10; the first day already has the starting income. Remember: the nth day has exactly \\(n-1\\) increases after day one.
