Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

The sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is


S_(n) =
(n)/(2) [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]

where a₁ is the initial value and d the common difference

Given


S_(n) =
(n)/(2) [ 10 + (n - 1)3 ]

Then by comparison

2a₁ = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a₁ = 4 ← initial value

and d = 3 ← common difference

Thus


S_(8) =
(8)/(2) [ 10 + (7 × 3) ]

= 4(10 + 21)

= 4 × 31

= 124
