A person is to count 4500 currency notes. Let $a_n$ denote the number of notes he counts in the $\mathrm{n}^{\text {th }}$ minute. If $\mathrm{a}_1=\mathrm{a}_2=\ldots \ldots=\mathrm{a}_{10}=150$ and $\mathrm{a}_{10}, \mathrm{a}_{11}, \ldots \ldots$ are in A.P. with common difference $-2$, then the time taken by him to count all notes is
