Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution :-
We have, a = 5, d = 12 - 5 = 7
and n = 50
We know that,
a(n) = a + (n - 1)d
a(50) = 5 + (50 - 1)7
= 5 + 49 × 7
= 348
Also the first term of the A.P. of last 15 terms be a(36)
a(36) = 5 + (36 - 1)7
= 5 + 35 × 7
= 5 + 245
= 250
Now, sum of last 15 terms,
S(n) = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]
⇒ S(n) = 15/2[a × 250 + (15 - 1)7]
⇒ S(n) = 15/2[500 + 14 × 7]
⇒ S(n) = 15/2 × 598
⇒ S(n) = 4485
Hence, the sum of last 15 terms is 4485.
