I'm guessing S^20 is actually referring to the 20th partial sum

, with

in the arithmetic case, and

in the geometric case.
(a) Combining like terms, we have

and invoking the formula

we end up with

(b) Multiply

by 1.1, then subtract this from

:


use the distributive property
5x(3x+4)
15x^2 +20x
Stuck on the same thing, tried reviewing and reviewing but now I’ll just try finding the answer key
Answer:
A and C the other two are just stand alone numbers. so the answers are A and C
Answer:
The equation for the trend line would be y = -1/100x + 25
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the trend line, we first need to find the slope. To do so, we need to find two points on the line. The points we'll use are (0, 25) and (2500, 0). Next, we use the slope formula.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - 25)/(2500 - 5)
m = -25/2500
m = -1/100
Now that we have this we can use the slope and the intercept in slope intercept form to model the trend line.
y = mx + b
y = -1/100x + 25
