...expression for this general term, is l=a+(n—l)r. That is, the last term is equal to the first term, plus the product of the common difference by the number of terms less one. If we suppose n successively equal to 1, 2, 3, 4, &c. we shall obtain the first, second, third,... | |

...above. We have seen, by the last paragraph, that the last term of the series is the first term with the product of the common difference, by the number of terms less one added to it Thus, /+ (» — I) d — I : consequently, if we subtract the first term from the... | |

...f4i)=H-^+(a+3rf)==2(a+2rf). 5. The last term of any increasing arithmetical series is equal to the first term plus the product of the common difference by the number of terms less one ; and if the series be decreasing, it is equal to the first term minus that product. Thus, the... | |

...and s the sum of the series. Or, the sum of any increasing arithmetical series may be found by adding the product of the common difference by the number of terms less one, to twice the first term, and then multiplying the result by half the number of terms. And, if... | |
