Find the sum of the first (16) terms of the arithmetic progression (4,9,14,\ldots).

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 664

Here, the first term is \(a=4\), the common difference is \(d=9-4=5\), and \(n=16\). Using \(S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]\), we get \(S_{16}=\frac{16}{2}[2(4)+15(5)]=8(83)=664\). Therefore, 664 is the correct answer. A value such as 672 usually results from an addition or multiplication error. Exam tip: calculate \((n-1)d\) first, then substitute carefully in the formula.
