Answer 1

An arithmetic progression is simply a progression with a common difference among consecutive terms.

• The sum of multiplies of 6 between 8 and 70 is 390
• The sum of multiplies of 5 between 12 and 92 is 840
• The sum of multiplies of 3 between 1 and 50 is 408
• The sum of multiplies of 11 between 10 and 122 is 726
• The sum of multiplies of 9 between 25 and 100 is 567
• The sum of the first 20 terms is 630
• The sum of the first 15 terms is 480
• The sum of the first 32 terms is 3136
• The sum of the first 27 terms is -486
• The sum of the first 51 terms is 2193

(a) Sum of multiples of 6, between 8 and 70

There are 10 multiples of 6 between 8 and 70, and the first of them is 12.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 12}$

$\mathbf{n = 10}$

$\mathbf{d = 6}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{10} = \frac{10}2(2*12 + (10 - 1)6)}$

$\mathbf{S_{10} = 390}$

(b) Multiples of 5 between 12 and 92

There are 16 multiples of 5 between 12 and 92, and the first of them is 15.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 15}$

$\mathbf{n = 16}$

$\mathbf{d = 5}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{16}2(2*15 + (16 - 1)5)}$

$\mathbf{S_{16} = 840}$

(c) Multiples of 3 between 1 and 50

There are 16 multiples of 3 between 1 and 50, and the first of them is 3.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 3}$

$\mathbf{n = 16}$

$\mathbf{d = 3}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{16}2(2*3 + (16 - 1)3)}$

$\mathbf{S_{16} = 408}$

(d) Multiples of 11 between 10 and 122

There are 11 multiples of 11 between 10 and 122, and the first of them is 11.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 11}$

$\mathbf{n = 11}$

$\mathbf{d = 11}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{11}2(2*11 + (11 - 1)11)}$

$\mathbf{S_{11} = 726}$

(e) Multiples of 9 between 25 and 100

There are 9 multiples of 9 between 25 and 100, and the first of them is 27.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 27}$

$\mathbf{n = 9}$

$\mathbf{d = 9}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{9} = \frac{9}2(2*27 + (9 - 1)9)}$

$\mathbf{S_{9} = 567}$

(f) Sum of first 20 terms

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{a = 3}$

$\mathbf{d = 3}$

$\mathbf{n = 20}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{20} = \frac{20}2(2*3 + (20 - 1)3)}$

$\mathbf{S_{20} = 630}$

(f) Sum of first 15 terms

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{a = 4}$

$\mathbf{d = 4}$

$\mathbf{n = 15}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{15} = \frac{15}2(2*4 + (15 - 1)4)}$

$\mathbf{S_{15} = 480}$

(g) Sum of first 32 terms

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{a = 5}$

$\mathbf{d = 6}$

$\mathbf{n = 32}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{32} = \frac{32}2(2*5 + (32 - 1)6)}$

$\mathbf{S_{32} = 3136}$

(g) Sum of first 27 terms

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{a = 8}$

$\mathbf{d = -2}$

$\mathbf{n = 27}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{27} = \frac{27}2(2*8 + (27 - 1)*-2)}$

$\mathbf{S_{27} = -486}$

(h) Sum of first 51 terms

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{a = -7}$

$\mathbf{d = 2}$

$\mathbf{n = 51}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{51} = \frac{51}2(2*-7 + (51 - 1)*2)}$

$\mathbf{S_{51} = 2193}$
