Given Sn=2n^2+5n
Sn−1=2(n−1)^2+5(n-1)
=2(n^2−2n+1)+5n−5
=2n^2 −4n+2+5n−5
=2n^2 +n−3
Now,
Tn =Sn−Sn−1
=2n^2 +5n−(2n^2 +n−3)
=2n^2 +5n−2n^2−n+3
=4n+3
substitute n=1,2,3,10
we get
T1 =7
T2 = 11
T3 = 15
T10 = 43
Therefore 7,11,15,43 and 4n+3 are the 1st term ,2nd term , 3rd term,10th term and nth terms.
