Answer :
General nth term an is given as:
an = a + (n - 1)d … (i)
Where,
a = First term of AP
d = Common difference of AP
and no of terms is ‘n’
and an = 3 + 4n
⇒ an = (7-4) + 4n
⇒ an = 7 + 4n – 4
⇒ an = 7 + 4(n – 1)
⇒ an = 7+ (n – 1)× 4 …(ii)
On comparing eq. (i) and (ii), we get,
a = 7 and d = 4
Here first term is 7 and common difference is 4.
Since the sum of n terms is
Sn =
Where,
a = First term of AP
d = Common difference of AP
and no of terms is ‘n’
So sum of first 25 terms S25= 12.5 × [ 14 + 24×4]
= 12.5 × [ 14 + 96]
= 12.5 × 110
= 1375
Hence, Sum of first 25 terms is 1375.
