SOLUTION

From the sequence give

–3, 1, 5, 9, . . .

The first term, a = -3

The common difference, d = 4 (gotten by adding 4 to the next term).

The number of terms required n = 6.

Formula for sum of an arithmetic sequence is given by

S_n=\frac{n}{2}\lbrack2a+(n-1)d\rbrack

Substituting these values into the equation above we have

\begin{gathered} S_n=\frac{n}{2}\lbrack2a+(n-1)d\rbrack \\ S_6=\frac{6}{2}\lbrack2\times-3+(6-1)4\rbrack \\ S_6=3\lbrack-6+(5)4\rbrack \\ S_6=3\lbrack-6+20\rbrack \\ S_6=3\lbrack14\rbrack \\ S_6=42 \end{gathered}

Hence, the answer is 42, option B

Consider the figure below. Line FG is parallel to line JK.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

A. a = 10

B. m<FNT = 120°

C. m<KTU = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

A. (7a + 50)° and (14a - 20)° are corresponding angles. Therefore:

(7a + 50)° = (14a - 20)°

Use this equation to find the value of a

7a + 50 = 14a - 20

Combine like terms

7a - 14a = - 50 - 20

-7a = -70

Divide both sides by -7

-7a/-7 = -70/-7

a = 10

B. m<FNT = (14a - 20)° (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Plug in the value of a

m<FNT = 14(10) - 20

m<FNT = 140 - 20

m<FNT = 120°

C. m<KTU + (14a - 20)° = 180° (linear pair)

Plug in the value of a

m<KTU + 14(10) - 20 = 180

m<KTU + 120 = 180

m<KTU + 120 - 120 = 180 - 120

m<KTU = 60°
