Answer with Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of first n terms of an arithmetic progression is given by:
10+25+40+...+85
Since, the terms have a common difference of 15
So, it is an arithmetic progression of n=6 terms with first term A1=10
and A6=85
We have to find S(6)
= 285
Hence, the sum of the terms of the series 10 + 25 + 40 + . . . + 85 is:
285

We can observe that the function describing the graph is linear and so the equation is of linear nature:
Numbers m and n have special names. m is called the slope, n is called y-intercept.
From the graph one can tell that the line intercepts y-axis at y = -1 that means n = -1. What about the slope you say?
The slope can be calculated using two points' coordinates that lie on the line:
Now our line has an equation,
