The sum up to 10 terms of the series 1 × 3 + 5 × 7 + 9 × 11 + . . is
Explanation:
1 × 3 + 5 × 7 + 9 × 11 +
T1 = 1 × 3 T2 = 5 × 7 and so on
In each of these terms, the first number forms an AP whose first term is 1 and common difference is 4. ∴ first number of nth term = 1 + (n - 1) × 4 = 4n - 3
In each of these terms, the second number forms an AP whose first term is 3 and common difference is 4. ∴ second number of nth term = 3 + (n - 1) × 4 = 4n - 1
⇒ Tn = (4n - 3) × (4n - 1) ⇒ Tn = 16n2 - 16n + 3
∴ ∑Tnn=110 = 16(12 + 22 + 32 + ... + 102) + 16(1 + 2 + 3 + 3 + ... + 10) + (3 + 3 + 3 + ... + 3)
= 1610×11×216 - 1610×112 + 30
= 6160 - 880 + 30 = 5310
Hence, 5310.
