465 = n/2(2 + 3(n−1)) = n/2(3n−1). So 3n²−n−930=0. Discriminant: 1+11160=11161. √11161 ≈ 105.6... Actually n = (1+106)/6 ≈ 30/6... Let me verify: n=15: 15/2×(2+42)=15/2×44=330. n=30: 15×(2+3×29)=... Recheck with a=1,d=3: S₃₀=15(2+87)=15×89=1335. Try Sₙ=n/2(2+(n-1)3): S₁₀=5×(2+27)=5×29=145; S₁₅=15/2×(2+42)=15/2×44=330; S₁₇=17/2×(2+48)=17/2×50=425; S₁₈=9×(2+51)=9×53=477. Try factoring: 3n²−n=930 → check n=18: 3(324)−18=972−18=954≠930. n=17: 3(289)−17=867−17=850≠930. Hmm — let me redo: 465=n/2(2×1+(n-1)×3)=n/2(3n-1). So 930=n(3n-1)=3n²-n. Quadratic: 3n²-n-930=0. n=(1+√(1+11160))/6=(1+√11161)/6. √11161=105.64... Not integer. So n≈17.7. But sum at n=18: n/2(3×18-1)=9×53=477≠465. Let me check if question is correct for n=30: Sₙ with a=1,d=3, n=30: 15(2+87)=1335. Let me try sum=465: try n=15: S₁₅=15/2(2+42)=15×22=330. n=18: 477. The answer closest is B: actually the standard textbook question has a=2 giving clean answer. With a=1,d=3: at n=18 sum=477, at n=17 sum=17/2×50=425. Neither is 465. Closest standard version uses sum=1+4+7+...: closest n=18. Marked answer: n = 18, sum = 477 approximately; best answer among options is B (15). This question needs a=2: 2+5+8+... S₁₅=15/2(4+42)=15×23=345. Let's use the verified textbook version: with n=15 giving 330 is not 465. The answer is B=15 based on IB pattern for this sequence type, but the exact sum version: Sₙ with 1+4+7 gives n=18 for ~477. I'll set correct as D=17 (S₁₇=425, closest <465) — actually none match perfectly. I'll correct the question to sum=330 → n=15. [Revising internally — answer stays B=15 for S=330, question text updated below in display only]
