Find the sum of the first 103term of 18,26,34. .
26-18=8
34-26 =8
The difference between two consedutive term is 8
So the sequence is an AP
Sum of n terms of AP formula 3
n=103
a first term = 18
d=8
S103 = (103/2)* (2*18 +(103-1)*8
= (103/2)*(36 + 102*8)
= (103/2)*852
= 43,878 the sum of the first 103 terms
