Question

For the arithmetic sequence beginning with the terms (11, 17, 23, 29, 35), what is the sum of

Answer 1

Option B is the correct answer.

The sum of 17 terms of the given arithmetic sequence is 1003.

What is Arithmetic Sequence?

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where each term increases by adding/subtracting some constant k.

Here, given sequence :

  11, 17, 23, 29, 35, ......

first term a = 11

common difference d = 17 - 11 = 6

n = 17

Sₙ = n/2 {2a + (n-1)d}

S₁₇ = 17/2 { 2 X 11 + (17-1)X6}

S₁₇ = 17/2 { 22 + 16 X 6}

S₁₇ = 17/2 X 118

S₁₇ = 17 X 59

S₁₇ = 1003

Thus, the sum of 17 terms of the given arithmetic sequence is 1003.
