Step-by-Step Verified Solution

We have 10 arithmetic progressions (A.P.s) with the first terms aia_i and the common differences did_i , where i=1,2,…,10i = 1, 2, \ldots, 10 .

The first terms are ai=ia_i = i and the common differences are di=2i−1d_i = 2i - 1 .

Now, we need to find the sum of the first 12 terms for each A.P. The formula for the sum of the first n terms of an A.P. is:

Sn=n(2a+(n−1)d2)S_n = n\left(\frac{2a + (n - 1)d}{2}\right)

In this case, we need to find the sum of the first 12 terms for each A.P., so we have:

S12=12(2a+11d2)S_{12} = 12\left(\frac{2a + 11d}{2}\right)

Now, we can compute the sum sis_i for each A.P.:

si=12(2i+11(2i−1)2)=6(2i+22i−11)=6(24i−11)s_i = 12\left(\frac{2i + 11(2i - 1)}{2}\right) = 6(2i + 22i - 11) = 6(24i - 11)

Finally, we need to find the sum of all sis_i for i=1,2,…,10i = 1, 2, \ldots, 10 :

∑i=110si=6∑i=110(24i−11)=6(24∑i=110i−11∑i=1101)\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} s_i = 6\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} (24i - 11) = 6\left(24\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} i - 11\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} 1\right)

The sum of the first 10 integers is ∑i=110i=10(10+1)2=55\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} i = \frac{10(10 + 1)}{2} = 55 , so we have:

∑i=110si=6(24⋅55−11⋅10)=6(1320−110)=6⋅1210=7260\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} s_i = 6\left(24\cdot55 - 11\cdot10\right) = 6(1320 - 110) = 6\cdot1210 = 7260

Thus, the sum ∑i=110si\sum\limits_{i=1}^{10} s_i is equal to 7260.
