Answer: 290

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]First\ integer\ on\ line\ n\ is:\ \dfrac{n^2}{2}-\dfrac{n}{2}+1 \\\\For \ line\ 17\ : \dfrac{17^2}{2}-\dfrac{17}{2}+1 =137\\\\\\Last \ integer\ on\ line\ n\ is:\ \dfrac{n*(n+1)}{2} \\\\For\ line\ 17:\ \dfrac{17*(17+1)}{2} =153\\\\Sum=137+153=290[/tex]

I have not say the equation in u(n+3) for the recurrence,

the resolution of the equation caracteristic and the resolution of a system of 3 equations with 3 variables.
