Roof

Tiles are stacked in rows on a trapezoidal roof. There are 47 tiles in the topmost row (at the ridge), and each subsequent row has one more tile than the row above it.

How many tiles cover the roof if the bottom row has 69 tiles?

Final Answer:

x =  1334

Step-by-step explanation:

a1=47 an=69 d=1  an = a1 + (n1)d n=ana1+1=6947+1=23  x=2n (a1+an)=223 (47+69)=1334
