The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the formula for the sum of the first \( n \) terms of an arithmetic progression (A.P.), which is given by: \[ S_n = \frac{n}{2} \left(2a + (n - 1)d\right) \] where: - \( S_n \) is the sum of the first \( n \) terms, - \( a \) is the first term, - \( d \) is the common difference, - \( n \) is the number of terms. ### Part (i): Finding \( S_{10} \) 1. **Identify the values**: - Given \( a = 6 \), \( d = 3 \), and \( n = 10 \). 2. **Substitute the values into the formula**: \[ S_{10} = \frac{10}{2} \left(2 \times 6 + (10 - 1) \times 3\right) \] 3. **Calculate \( \frac{10}{2} \)**: \[ S_{10} = 5 \left(2 \times 6 + 9 \times 3\right) \] 4. **Calculate \( 2 \times 6 \)**: \[ 2 \times 6 = 12 \] 5. **Calculate \( 9 \times 3 \)**: \[ 9 \times 3 = 27 \] 6. **Add the results**: \[ S_{10} = 5 \left(12 + 27\right) = 5 \times 39 \] 7. **Calculate \( 5 \times 39 \)**: \[ S_{10} = 195 \] ### Part (ii): Finding \( S_{6} \) 1. **Identify the values**: - Given \( a = 6 \), \( d = 3 \), and \( n = 6 \). 2. **Substitute the values into the formula**: \[ S_{6} = \frac{6}{2} \left(2 \times 6 + (6 - 1) \times 3\right) \] 3. **Calculate \( \frac{6}{2} \)**: \[ S_{6} = 3 \left(2 \times 6 + 5 \times 3\right) \] 4. **Calculate \( 2 \times 6 \)**: \[ 2 \times 6 = 12 \] 5. **Calculate \( 5 \times 3 \)**: \[ 5 \times 3 = 15 \] 6. **Add the results**: \[ S_{6} = 3 \left(12 + 15\right) = 3 \times 27 \] 7. **Calculate \( 3 \times 27 \)**: \[ S_{6} = 81 \] ### Final Results - \( S_{10} = 195 \) - \( S_{6} = 81 \)
