Solution

The correct option is B 4n + 1
Given,
$S_{r} = (2 r^{2} + 3 r)$
We know that,
$T_{n} = S_{n} - S_{n - 1}$

So, $S_{n} = 2 n^{2} + 3 n$
$S_{n - 1} = 2 {(n - 1)}^{2} + 3 (n - 1)$

Now,
$T_{n} = S_{n} - S_{n - 1}$
$= 2 n^{2} + 3 n - [2 (n^{2} - 2 n + 1) + 3 n - 3]$
$= 2 n^{2} + 3 n - 2 n^{2} + 4 n - 2 - 3 n + 3 = 4 n + 1$
