Correct answer: B, C

Step 1: Find the general term of the arithmetic progression ana_nan​.

Given an arithmetic progression with the first term a1=7a_1 = 7a1​=7 and common difference d=8d = 8d=8. The general term ana_nan​ is given by the formula an=a1+(n−1)da_n = a_1 + (n-1)dan​=a1​+(n−1)d. Substituting the given values: an=7+(n−1)8=7+8n−8=8n−1a_n = 7 + (n-1)8 = 7 + 8n - 8 = 8n - 1an​=7+(n−1)8=7+8n−8=8n−1.

Step 2: Find the general term of the sequence TnT_nTn​.

We are given T1=3T_1 = 3T1​=3 and the recurrence relation Tn+1−Tn=anT_{n+1} - T_n = a_nTn+1​−Tn​=an​ for n≥1n \geq 1n≥1. We can express TnT_nTn​ in terms of T1T_1T1​ and the sum of terms of aka_kak​ by writing out the recurrence for consecutive values: T2−T1=a1T_2 - T_1 = a_1T2​−T1​=a1​ T3−T2=a2T_3 - T_2 = a_2T3​−T2​=a2​ T4−T3=a3T_4 - T_3 = a_3T4​−T3​=a3​ ............ Tn−Tn−1=an−1T_n - T_{n-1} = a_{n-1}Tn​−Tn−1​=an−1​

Summing these equations, we get a telescoping series on the left side: (Tn−Tn−1)+...+(T3−T2)+(T2−T1)=an−1+...+a2+a1(T_n - T_{n-1}) + ... + (T_3 - T_2) + (T_2 - T_1) = a_{n-1} + ... + a_2 + a_1(Tn​−Tn−1​)+...+(T3​−T2​)+(T2​−T1​)=an−1​+...+a2​+a1​ Tn−T1=∑k=1n−1akT_n - T_1 = \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} a_kTn​−T1​=∑k=1n−1​ak​ Tn=T1+∑k=1n−1akT_n = T_1 + \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} a_kTn​=T1​+∑k=1n−1​ak​

Now, we calculate the sum ∑k=1n−1ak=∑k=1n−1(8k−1)\sum_{k=1}^{n-1} a_k = \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} (8k-1)∑k=1n−1​ak​=∑k=1n−1​(8k−1). ∑k=1n−1(8k−1)=8∑k=1n−1k−∑k=1n−11\sum_{k=1}^{n-1} (8k-1) = 8 \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} k - \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} 1∑k=1n−1​(8k−1)=8∑k=1n−1​k−∑k=1n−1​1 Using the formula for the sum of the first mmm integers, ∑k=1mk=m(m+1)2\sum_{k=1}^{m} k = \frac{m(m+1)}{2}∑k=1m​k=2m(m+1)​, with m=n−1m = n-1m=n−1: ∑k=1n−1(8k−1)=8(n−1)(n−1+1)2−(n−1)\sum_{k=1}^{n-1} (8k-1) = 8 \frac{(n-1)(n-1+1)}{2} - (n-1)∑k=1n−1​(8k−1)=82(n−1)(n−1+1)​−(n−1) =4(n−1)n−(n−1)= 4(n-1)n - (n-1)=4(n−1)n−(n−1) =(n−1)(4n−1)=4n2−4n−n+1=4n2−5n+1= (n-1)(4n-1) = 4n^2 - 4n - n + 1 = 4n^2 - 5n + 1=(n−1)(4n−1)=4n2−4n−n+1=4n2−5n+1.

Now substitute this sum back into the expression for TnT_nTn​: Tn=T1+(4n2−5n+1)T_n = T_1 + (4n^2 - 5n + 1)Tn​=T1​+(4n2−5n+1) Given T1=3T_1 = 3T1​=3, we have: Tn=3+4n2−5n+1T_n = 3 + 4n^2 - 5n + 1Tn​=3+4n2−5n+1 Tn=4n2−5n+4T_n = 4n^2 - 5n + 4Tn​=4n2−5n+4. This formula is valid for n≥2n \geq 2n≥2. For n=1n=1n=1, T1=4(1)2−5(1)+4=3T_1 = 4(1)^2 - 5(1) + 4 = 3T1​=4(1)2−5(1)+4=3, which matches the given condition.

Step 3: Evaluate each option.

Option A: T20=1604T_{20}=1604T20​=1604 Using the formula for TnT_nTn​ with n=20n=20n=20: T20=4(20)2−5(20)+4=4(400)−100+4=1600−100+4=1504T_{20} = 4(20)^2 - 5(20) + 4 = 4(400) - 100 + 4 = 1600 - 100 + 4 = 1504T20​=4(20)2−5(20)+4=4(400)−100+4=1600−100+4=1504. So, T20=1504T_{20} = 1504T20​=1504, which is not equal to 1604. Thus, option A is FALSE.

Option C: T30=3454T_{30}=3454T30​=3454 Using the formula for TnT_nTn​ with n=30n=30n=30: T30=4(30)2−5(30)+4=4(900)−150+4=3600−150+4=3454T_{30} = 4(30)^2 - 5(30) + 4 = 4(900) - 150 + 4 = 3600 - 150 + 4 = 3454T30​=4(30)2−5(30)+4=4(900)−150+4=3600−150+4=3454. So, T30=3454T_{30} = 3454T30​=3454. Thus, option C is TRUE.

Option B: ∑k=120Tk=10510\sum_{k=1}^{20} T_{k}=10510∑k=120​Tk​=10510 We need to compute the sum ∑k=120Tk=∑k=120(4k2−5k+4)\sum_{k=1}^{20} T_k = \sum_{k=1}^{20} (4k^2 - 5k + 4)∑k=120​Tk​=∑k=120​(4k2−5k+4). ∑k=1NTk=4∑k=1Nk2−5∑k=1Nk+∑k=1N4\sum_{k=1}^{N} T_k = 4 \sum_{k=1}^{N} k^2 - 5 \sum_{k=1}^{N} k + \sum_{k=1}^{N} 4∑k=1N​Tk​=4∑k=1N​k2−5∑k=1N​k+∑k=1N​4. We use the standard summation formulas: ∑k=1Nk=N(N+1)2\sum_{k=1}^{N} k = \frac{N(N+1)}{2}∑k=1N​k=2N(N+1)​ and ∑k=1Nk2=N(N+1)(2N+1)6\sum_{k=1}^{N} k^2 = \frac{N(N+1)(2N+1)}{6}∑k=1N​k2=6N(N+1)(2N+1)​. For N=20N=20N=20: ∑k=120k=20(21)2=210\sum_{k=1}^{20} k = \frac{20(21)}{2} = 210∑k=120​k=220(21)​=210. ∑k=120k2=20(21)(41)6=10⋅7⋅41=2870\sum_{k=1}^{20} k^2 = \frac{20(21)(41)}{6} = 10 \cdot 7 \cdot 41 = 2870∑k=120​k2=620(21)(41)​=10⋅7⋅41=2870. ∑k=1204=4⋅20=80\sum_{k=1}^{20} 4 = 4 \cdot 20 = 80∑k=120​4=4⋅20=80. Substituting these values: ∑k=120Tk=4(2870)−5(210)+80=11480−1050+80=10430+80=10510\sum_{k=1}^{20} T_k = 4(2870) - 5(210) + 80 = 11480 - 1050 + 80 = 10430 + 80 = 10510∑k=120​Tk​=4(2870)−5(210)+80=11480−1050+80=10430+80=10510. So, ∑k=120Tk=10510\sum_{k=1}^{20} T_{k}=10510∑k=120​Tk​=10510. Thus, option B is TRUE.

Option D: ∑k=130Tk=35610\sum_{k=1}^{30} T_{k}=35610∑k=130​Tk​=35610 For N=30N=30N=30: ∑k=130k=30(31)2=15⋅31=465\sum_{k=1}^{30} k = \frac{30(31)}{2} = 15 \cdot 31 = 465∑k=130​k=230(31)​=15⋅31=465. ∑k=130k2=30(31)(61)6=5⋅31⋅61=9455\sum_{k=1}^{30} k^2 = \frac{30(31)(61)}{6} = 5 \cdot 31 \cdot 61 = 9455∑k=130​k2=630(31)(61)​=5⋅31⋅61=9455. ∑k=1304=4⋅30=120\sum_{k=1}^{30} 4 = 4 \cdot 30 = 120∑k=130​4=4⋅30=120. Substituting these values: ∑k=130Tk=4(9455)−5(465)+120=37820−2325+120=35495+120=35615\sum_{k=1}^{30} T_k = 4(9455) - 5(465) + 120 = 37820 - 2325 + 120 = 35495 + 120 = 35615∑k=130​Tk​=4(9455)−5(465)+120=37820−2325+120=35495+120=35615. So, ∑k=130Tk=35615\sum_{k=1}^{30} T_{k}=35615∑k=130​Tk​=35615, which is not equal to 35610. Thus, option D is FALSE.
