Step 1
- The given sequence is: 5, 10, 17, 26, ... - First differences: 10 - 5 = 5, 17 - 10 = 7, 26 - 17 = 9 - Second differences: 7 - 5 = 2, 9 - 7 = 2 (constant) Show more…

1. The arithmetic sequence starts with 1, has 9 terms, and the middle term is 21. Determine the sum of the first 9 terms 2. How many terms of the progression 3, 5, 7, … should there be so that their sum will be 2600. 3. If the sum is 220 and first term is 10, find the common difference if the last term is 30. 4. Find the sum of all integers from 300 to 1000 that are exactly divisible by 17 5. The fourth and tenth terms of a geometric sequence are 16 and 1024 respectively. Find the sum from the first term to the twelfth term.
