S_n = \dfrac{n(a_1 + a_n)}{2}

S_6 = \dfrac{6(5 + 20)}{2}

S_6 = 75

Of course, you can just add the 6 terms, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, and 20, and you will also get a sum of 75.

Given that there are six terms, we have this set:

a_{n} = \{5,8,11,a_{4},a_{5},20}\}

So, we need to find a4 and a5. Given that:

8-5 = 3
11-8 = 3

Then, it is obvious that

a_{4}-11 = 3 ∴ a_{4}=14 
a_{5}-14 = 3 ∴ a_{5}=17 

Then, the sum of the terms of the series is:

S = 5+8+11+14+17+20 = 75

Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 2.1-cm wide by 5.6-cm long. Your calculator answer would be 11.76
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 12 cm² ⇒ in 2 significant figures

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the significant figures

- All non-zero digits are significant

# 73 has two significant figures

- Zeroes between non-zeros digits are significant

# 105.203 has six significant figures

- Leading zeros are never significant

# 0.00234 has three significant figures

- In a number with a decimal point, zeros to the right of the last

 non-zero digit are significant

# 19.00 has four significant figures

- Lets make a number and then approximate it to different significant

∵ 12.7360 has 6 significant figures

∴ 12.736 ⇒ approximated to 5 significant figures

∴ 12.74 ⇒ approximated to 4 significant figures

∴ 12.7 ⇒ approximated to 3 significant figures

∴ 13 ⇒ approximated to 2 significant figures

∴ 10 ⇒ approximated to 1 significant figure

- Another number with decimal point

∵ 0.0546700 has 6 significant figures

∴ 0.054670 ⇒ approximated to 5 significant figures

∴ 0.05467 ⇒ approximated to 4 significant figures

∴ 0.0547 ⇒ approximated to 3 significant figures

∴ 0.055 ⇒ approximated to 2 significant figures

∴ 0.05 ⇒ approximated to 1 significant figures

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The width of the rectangle is 2.1 cm

∵ The length of the rectangle is 5.6 cm

- Area of the rectangle = length × width

∴ Area of the rectangle = 2.1 × 5.6 = 11.76 cm²

- Approximate it to two significant figures

∴ Area of the rectangle = 12 ⇒ to the nearest 2 significant figures

* The area of the rectangle is 12 cm² ⇒ in 2 significant figures
