Find the sum of the arithmetic series given a1 =2, an =35 an n = 12

Given:
[tex]a_1=2,a_n=35,n=12[/tex]Required:
Find the sum of the arithmetic series.
Explanation:
The sum of the arithmetic series when the first and the last term is given by the formula.
[tex]S_n=\frac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n)[/tex]Substitute the given values in the formula.
[tex]\begin{gathered} S_n=\frac{12}{2}(2+35) \\ =6(37) \\ =222 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final Answer:
Option D is the correct answer.
