An artist makes (3) drawings on the first day and (1) more drawing each next day. How many drawings are made in (15) days?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 150

The daily number of drawings forms an arithmetic progression with first term \(a=3\), common difference \(d=1\), and \(n=15\) days. On the 15th day, the artist makes \(a_{15}=3+(15-1)\times1=17\) drawings. Therefore, \(S_{15}=\frac{15}{2}(3+17)=150\) drawings in total. Choosing 155 would add one extra drawing to the sum. Exam tip: in AP word problems, identify \(a\), \(d\), and \(n\) first, then use \(S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]\).
