An arithmetic series consists of consecutive integers that are multiples are of 4. What is the sum of the first nine terms of th

Mrac [35]

Answer: The answer is 144.

Step-by-step explanation: Let 'a' be the first term and 'd' be the common difference of the given arithmetic progression (A.P.).

According to the given information, A.P. is {0, 4, 8, 12, 16, . . .}, i.e., a=0 and d=4.

The sum of first n terms is given by

$S_n=\dfrac{n}{2}\{2a+(n-1)d\}.$

So, the sum of first 9 terms is

$S_9=\dfrac{9}{2}\{2\times 0+(9-1)\times4\}=\dfrac{9}{2}(8\times 4)=144.$

Thus, the required sum is 144.
