Answer: 190 mark as brainliest
Step-by-step explanation:
middle term is 10 and no. of terms, n = 19
i,e t 10 = 10
or, a + 9d = 10 -------eqn i
Now,
Sum of terms, S = n/2[2a + (n − 1) × d]
= 19 /2 [ 2a+ 18 d]
= (19 /2) * 2 [ a + 9d ]
= 19 * 10 -----> from eqn i
= 190
The sum of an A.P. of nineteen terms whose middle term is 10 is 190.
Given data:
There are 19 terms in an A.P, so n = 19.
It is given that the middle term of the series is 10.
Now we have to find out the middle term, as the value of n is 19. It is an odd number
So the middle is calculated as, n+1/2= 19+1/2=20/2=10.
The 10th term is the middle term, that is T₁₀=10 ----(1).
The general term formula for arithmetic progression is a+(n-1)d.
T₁₀=a+9d
10=a+9d (from equation 1) -----(2)
Sum of the terms of the series is given by
Sn=(2a+(n−1)d)
Substituting the value of n we have, we get
S19=(2a+(19−1)d)
S19=(2a+18d)
S19=19(a+9d)
S19=19(10) (from equation 2)
S19=190.
