find the sum of the arithmetic sequence 5,8,11,...,200
Answers
Answer:
To find the sum of series is
S = n/2(a+l)
S: sum of terms
n: no. of terms
a: 1st term
l: last term
To find no. of terms
l=a+(n-1)d (d: common difference)
200=5+(n-1)3
195=3n-3
198=3n
66=n
S= 66/2(5+200)
S= 33(205)
S=6765

AnswEr :-
• The sum of the arithmetic sequence is 6600.
Given :-
• An AP as 5, 8, 11......200
To Find :-
• Sum of the arithmetic sequence.
SoluTion :-
Here,
• First term a = 5
• Second term = 8
• Common difference d = 8 - 5 = 3
• nth term of the AP Tn = 200
» Tn = a + (n - 1)d
→ 200 = 5 + (n - 1)3
→ 200 = 5 + 3n - 3
→ 200 = 2 + 3n
→ 200 - 2 = 3n
→ 198 = 3n
→ n = 198/3
→ n = 66
Now, we'll find the sum of the n terms :-
» Sn = n/2 [a + (n - 1)d ]
→ Sn = 66/2 [ 5 + (66 - 1)3 ]
→ Sn = 33 [ 5 + 195 ]
→ Sn = 33 × 200
→ Sn = 6600
