The sum of the first n terms of an AP is given by \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"A%5Bn%5D+=+%28n%2F2%29%2A%282%2Aa%5B1%5D+%2B+%28n-1%29d%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "==> \"A%5B20%5D+=+10%282%2Aa%5B1%5D+%2B+19d%29+=+420+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and \"A%5B50%5D+=+25%282%2Aa%5B1%5D+%2B+49d%29+=+2550\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "or \"2%2Aa%5B1%5D+%2B+19d+=+42+\" and \"2%2Aa%5B1%5D+%2B+49d+=+102+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Solving these equations give\r
