Question

一辆小车沿山坡向下滚动，第一秒行驶 $5$ 英寸，并且不断加速，使得之后每个连续的 $1$ 秒时间段内，它都比前一个 $1$ 秒时间段多行驶 $7$ 英寸。小车用 $30$ 秒到达山脚。它一共行驶了多少英寸？

A cart rolls down a hill, traveling $5$ inches the first second and accelerating so that during each successive $1$ -second time interval, it travels $7$ inches more than during the previous $1$ -second interval. The cart takes $30$ seconds to reach the bottom of the hill. How far, in inches, does it travel?

$215$

$360$

文字解答：

$5, 5 + 7, 5 + 2 \cdot 7, \ldots$

每秒行驶的距离构成等差数列： $30$ $5$ 。 $n\cdot\dfrac{a_1+a_n}{2}.$ $5 + 29 \cdot 7 = 208.$

等差数列的和为这里项数为，首项为，末项为 $30 \cdot \dfrac{5 + 208}{2} = 15 \cdot 213 = 3195.$

所以正确答案是 D。

The distance travelled every second forms an arithmetic sequence: $5, 5 + 7, 5 + 2 \cdot 7, \ldots$

The standard arithmetic-sequence sum formula is $n\cdot\dfrac{a_1+a_n}{2}.$ We know the number of terms is $30$ and the first term is $5.$ The last term is $5 + 29 \cdot 7 = 208.$

Plugging these values into the expression yields $30 \cdot \dfrac{5 + 208}{2} = 15 \cdot 213 = 3195.$

Thus, D is the correct answer.
