Answer:
[tex]S_{12}=\sum_{i=1}^{12} [\frac{3}{2}+(i-1)\times \frac{5}{6}][/tex]
[tex]S_{12}=73[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]First\ term\ of\ the\ series(a_1)=\frac{3}{2}\\\\Second\ term\ of\ the\ series(a_2)=\frac{7}{3}\\\\Third\ term\ of\ the\ series(a_3)=\frac{19}{6}\\\\a_2-a_1=\frac{7}{3}-\frac{3}{2}=\frac{5}{6}\\\\a_3-a_2=\frac{19}{6}-\frac{7}{3}=\frac{5}{6}\\\\Hence\ it\ is\ an\ Arithmetic\ Series\ with\ first\ term=\frac{3}{2}\ and\ constant\ difference=\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
[tex]a_1=\frac{3}{2}+0\times \frac{5}{6}\\\\a_2=\frac{3}{2}+1\times \frac{5}{6}\\\\a_3=\frac{3}{2}+2\times \frac{5}{6}\\\\.\\.\\.\\a_n=\frac{3}{2}+(n-1)\times \frac{5}{6}\\\\S_n=a_1+a_2+a_3+......+a_n\\\\S_n=(\frac{3}{2}+0\times \frac{5}{6})+(\frac{3}{2}+1\times \frac{5}{6})+(\frac{3}{2}+2\times \frac{5}{6})+....+(\frac{3}{2}+[n-1]\times \frac{5}{6})\\\\S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n [\frac{3}{2}+(i-1)\times \frac{5}{6}]\\\\S_n=(\frac{3}{2}+\frac{3}{2}+\frac{3}{2}+...n\ times)+\frac{5}{6}(1+2+3+4+...+(n-1))\\\\[/tex]
[tex]S_n=\frac{3}{2}\times n+\frac{5}{6}\times \frac{n(n-1)}{2}\\\\[/tex]
[tex]S_{12}=\sum_{i=1}^{12} [\frac{3}{2}+(i-1)\times \frac{5}{6}][/tex]
[tex]S_{12}=\frac{3}{2}\times 12+\frac{5}{6}\times \frac{(12)(12-1)}{2}\\\\S_{12}=18+55\\\\S_{12}=73[/tex]
