Problems Algebra and arithmetic Sequences Sums of number sequences and difference series

Problem

Let the sequences of numbers \(\{a_n\}\) and \(\{b_n\}\), that are associated with the relation \(\Delta b_n = a_n\) (\(n = 1, 2, \dots\)), be given. How are the partial sums \(S_n\) of the sequence \(\{a_n\}\) \(S_n = a_1 + a_2 + \dots + a_n\) linked to the sequence \(\{b_n\}\)?
