The correct Answer is:
To find the sum of all the elements of \( S_{10} \), we need to identify the elements in the set \( S_{10} \) based on the pattern established in the previous sets. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Pattern**: - The sets \( S_n \) contain the first \( n \) odd numbers starting from 1. - \( S_1 = \{1\} \) has 1 element. - \( S_2 = \{3, 5\} \) has 2 elements. - \( S_3 = \{7, 9, 11\} \) has 3 elements. - Continuing this pattern, \( S_n \) contains \( n \) odd numbers. 2. **Determine the Elements of \( S_{10} \)**: - Since \( S_{10} \) contains 10 odd numbers, we need to find the first 10 odd numbers starting from 1. - The first 10 odd numbers are: - 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19. 3. **Sum the Elements of \( S_{10} \)**: - Now we will sum these numbers: \[ 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 \] 4. **Calculate the Sum**: - We can pair the numbers for easier addition: - (1 + 19) + (3 + 17) + (5 + 15) + (7 + 13) + (9 + 11) - Each pair sums to 20: \[ 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 = 100 \] 5. **Final Result**: - Therefore, the sum of all the elements of \( S_{10} \) is \( 100 \).
