Sagot :
Answer:
The sum is 255
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula of Sum in arithmetic sequence
- Sn = n/2 (2a1+(n-1)d)
From the series
- n = 15 , a1 = 3 and d = 2
d = 5-3 = 2
d = 7-5 = 2
Now , solving we get
- Sn = n/2 (2a1 + (n-1)d)
- S(50) = 15/2 [ 2(3) + (15-1)2 ]
- S(50) = 7.5 [ 6 + 14(2) ]
- S(50) = 7.5 ( 6 + 28)
- S(50) = 7.5 (34)
- S(50) = 255
