The sum of five consecutive odd number is equal to 175. What is the sum of the second large number and the square of the smallest number among them together?
Correct Answer: none of the above
Explanation:
Sum of the five consecutive odd number = N + (N + 2) + (N + 4) + (N + 6) + (N + 8) =175
⇒ 5N + 20 =175
⇒ N = (175 - 20) / 5 = 31 Sum of the second largest and square of smallest one = (31 + 6) + (31)2
= 37 + 961=998
