She pays in total $1350 after the 12 months
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is:
1. Daniela borrowed some money from her parents she agreed to pay
$30 at the end of the first month
2. She agreed to pay $15 more each additional month for months
We need to find how much money she pays in total after the 12 months
The formula of the sum of n terms of an arithmetic series is
, where a is the 1st term, d is the
common difference between each two consecutive terms, and n the
position of the term
∵ She will pay $30 at the end of the first month
∴ a = 30
∵ She will pay $15 more each month
∴ d = 15
∵ She will do that for 12 months
∴ n = 12
Substitute these values in the formula of the sum above
∴ ![S_{12}=\frac{12}{2}[2(30)+(12-1)15]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B12%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B12%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%2830%29%2B%2812-1%2915%5D)
∴ ![S_{12}=6[60+(11)15]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B12%7D%3D6%5B60%2B%2811%2915%5D)
∴ ![S_{12}=6[60+165]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B12%7D%3D6%5B60%2B165%5D)
∴ ![S_{12}=6[225]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B12%7D%3D6%5B225%5D)
∴ 
She pays in total $1350 after the 12 months
