Problem 5 The sum of the first ten terms of an arithmetic progression consisting of
positive integer terms is equal to the sum of the 20th, 21st and 22nd term.
If the first term is less than 20, find how many terms are required to give
a sum of 960.

is this in the euler student problem question?

Step-by-step explanation

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
