= 190
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
4th term = 13
8th term = 29
Find S10 =?
An = a +(n - 1)d
4th term = 13 , n=4
13 = a + (4 - 1)d
13 = a + 3d...................eq1
8th term = 29 , n=8
29 = a + (8 - 1)d
29 = a + 7d..................eq2
From eq2 - eq1
16 = 4d
16/4 = d
4 = d
Put d=4 in eq 1
13 = a + 3d
13 = a + 3(4)
13 = a +12
13-12 = a
1 = a
So, Sn = n/2[2a + (n-1)d]
where, n=10
S10 = 10/2[2x1 + (10-1)4]
S10 = 5[2 + 9(4)]
= 5[2+36]
= 190
