  1. Given A.P. has nth term, an = An + B

    and number of terms(n) = 20

    So, an = A(20) + B = 20A + B

    On putting n = 1, we get a, first term of the A.P.,

    a = A(1) + B = A + B

    S20 = n[a + an]/2

    = 20(A+B + 20A + B)/2

    = 10[21A + 2B]

    = 210A + 20B

    Hence, the sum of the first 20 terms of given A.P. is 210A + 20B.
