Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):
x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number. x+9 = 10, so x = 9.
Think of it this way: there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.
Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.
The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:
sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55 (answer)

Step-by-step explanation:
Bank balance after 15 years is $950
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the simple interest on the principal amount using the formula SI = PRT/100 where Principal (P) = $500, Rate of Interest (R) = 6% and Time(T) = 15 years
⇒ SI = 500 × 6 × 15/100 = $450
- Step 2: Find total amount using the formula Amount = P + SI
⇒ Amount = 500 + 450 = $950
