Answer:
- 3108
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum to n terms of an arithmetic series is
=
[ 2
+ (n - 1)d ]
Substitute the given values into the formula
=
[ (2 × - 26) + (23 × - 9) ]
= 12 ( - 52 - 207 )
= 12 × - 259 = - 3108
N=d-2
q=n+d =>q=(d-2)=q=2d-2
25q+5n+10d=525
replace q and n with d
25(2d-2) +5(d-2)+10d=525
50d-50+5d-10+10d=525
65d=585
d=9
n=7
q=16
