The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( S_{20} \) given the condition \( S_{n+2} - S_n = n^2 \) and the information that \( T_1 + T_2 = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Condition:** We have the equation \( S_{n+2} - S_n = n^2 \). This means the difference between the sum of the first \( n+2 \) terms and the sum of the first \( n \) terms equals \( n^2 \). 2. **Setting Up the Series:** Let’s denote the first term of the series as \( a \) and the common difference as \( d \). The terms of the series can be expressed as: - \( T_1 = a \) - \( T_2 = a + d \) - \( T_3 = a + 2d \) - \( T_4 = a + 3d \) - and so on. 3. **Finding \( S_n \):** The sum of the first \( n \) terms of an arithmetic series is given by: \[ S_n = \frac{n}{2} \left( 2a + (n-1)d \right) \] 4. **Using the Given Condition:** Substitute \( n \) with \( n \) and \( n+2 \): \[ S_{n+2} = \frac{n+2}{2} \left( 2a + (n+1)d \right) \] Now, using the condition: \[ S_{n+2} - S_n = n^2 \] 5. **Expanding the Sums:** \[ \frac{n+2}{2} \left( 2a + (n+1)d \right) - \frac{n}{2} \left( 2a + (n-1)d \right) = n^2 \] Simplifying this equation will help us find relationships between \( a \) and \( d \). 6. **Substituting Values:** Let's put \( n = 1 \): \[ S_3 - S_1 = 1^2 \] This gives us: \[ S_3 - S_1 = 1 \] Now, we can express \( S_3 \) and \( S_1 \): \[ S_3 = a + (a + d) + (a + 2d) = 3a + 3d \] \[ S_1 = a \] Thus: \[ 3a + 3d - a = 1 \implies 2a + 3d = 1 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] 7. **Using the Condition \( T_1 + T_2 = 0 \):** From \( T_1 + T_2 = 0 \): \[ a + (a + d) = 0 \implies 2a + d = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] 8. **Solving the Equations:** Now, we can solve Equations 1 and 2 simultaneously: From Equation 2, we have \( d = -2a \). Substitute this into Equation 1: \[ 2a + 3(-2a) = 1 \implies 2a - 6a = 1 \implies -4a = 1 \implies a = -\frac{1}{4} \] Then, substituting \( a \) back into Equation 2: \[ d = -2(-\frac{1}{4}) = \frac{1}{2} \] 9. **Finding \( S_{20} \):** Now we can calculate \( S_{20} \): \[ S_{20} = \frac{20}{2} \left( 2a + (20-1)d \right) = 10 \left( 2(-\frac{1}{4}) + 19(\frac{1}{2}) \right) \] \[ = 10 \left( -\frac{1}{2} + \frac{19}{2} \right) = 10 \left( \frac{18}{2} \right) = 10 \times 9 = 90 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, \( S_{20} = 90 \).

To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( S_{20} \) given the condition \( S_{n+2} - S_n = n^2 \) and the information that \( T_1 + T_2 = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Condition:** We have the equation \( S_{n+2} - S_n = n^2 \). This means the difference between the sum of the first \( n+2 \) terms and the sum of the first \( n \) terms equals \( n^2 \). 2. **Setting Up the Series:** ...
