A certain drive-in movie theater has a total of 17 rows of parking spaces. There are 20 parking spaces in the first row and 21 parking spaces in the second row. In each subsequent row there are 2 more parking spaces than in the previous row. What is the total number of parking spaces in the movie theater?

题目分析:
等差数列求和,从第二排开始到第 17 排形成了一个公差为 2 的等差数列, ~$S=n(a_1+a_n)=na_1 + 1/2n n − 1 d$~;
二排到 17 排的和 n=17-2+1=16,d=2, ~$a_1$~=21; S=16*21+1/2*16*15*2=576;
再加上第一排,576+20=596.
综上:答案就是 C
注意陷阱,是16个数的等差数列,最后sum要加上第一列
