The sum 1+3+11+25+45+71+. . upto 20 terms, is equal to
The sum . upto 20 terms, is equal to
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
Given sum is
First order differences are in A.P.
Thus, we can assume that
Solving \left\{,
we get \mathrm{a}=3, \mathrm{~b}=-7, \mathrm{c}=5\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{n}}=3\mathrm{n}^2-7\mathrm{n}+
Hence, required sum equals
\sum_{\mathrm{n}=1}^{\mathrm{n}=20}\left(3 \mathrm{n}^2-7+5\right)=3 \left(\frac{20 \cdot 21 \cdot 41}{6}\right)+5(20)=7240
