प्रश्न
Find the sum of first 16 terms of the A.P. whose nth term is given by an = 5n – 3.
उत्तर
Given, nth term of A.P. is an = 5n – 3
∴ a1 = 5(1) – 3 = 2
And a2 = 5(2) – 3 = 7
∴ Common difference, d = 7 – 2 = 5
∴ Sum of n terms of A.P., Sn = `n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]`
∴ S16 = `16/2 [2(2) + (16 - 1)5]`
= 8(4 + 75)
= 8 × 79
= 632
