15x²+16x+4 =0      (ax² +bx +c=0)

Δ = b²-4ac =256 - 4×15×4 =16

x1 = (-b+√Δ) / 2a = (-16+√16) / 30 =( -16+4) / 30 = -12/30 = - 2/5
x2 = (-b -√Δ) / 2a = (-16 -√16) / 30 = (-16 -4) /30 = -20/30 = -2/3

      15x² + 16x = -4
15x² + 16x + 4 = -4 + 4
15x² + 16x + 4 = 0
x = <u>-(16) +/- √((16)² - 4(15)(4))</u>
                       2(15)
x = <u>-16 +/- √(256 - 240)</u>
                     30
x = <u>-16 +/- √(16)
</u>              30
x = <u>-16 +/- 4</u>
            30
x = <u>-8 +/- 2</u>
          15
x = <u>-8 + 2</u>  or  x = <u>-8 - 2</u>
         15                  15
x = <u>-6</u>             x = <u>-10</u>
      15                   15
x = ⁻²/₅            x = ⁻²/₃

Prove by mathematical induction that 1+2+3+...+n= n(n+1)/2 please can someone help me with this ASAP. Thanks​
Iteru [2.4K]

Let

P(n):\ 1+2+\ldots+n = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}

In order to prove this by induction, we first need to prove the base case, i.e. prove that P(1) is true:

P(1):\ 1 = \dfrac{1\cdot 2}{2}=1

So, the base case is ok. Now, we need to assume P(n) and prove P(n+1).

P(n+1) states that

P(n+1):\ 1+2+\ldots+n+(n+1) = \dfrac{(n+1)(n+2)}{2}=\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}

Since we're assuming P(n), we can substitute the sum of the first n terms with their expression:

\underbrace{1+2+\ldots+n}_{P(n)}+n+1 = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}+n+1=\dfrac{n(n+1)+2n+2}{2}=\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}

Which terminates the proof, since we showed that

P(n+1):\ 1+2+\ldots+n+(n+1) =\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}

as required

Find d:
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

D = 51, other = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

d = | 5  1 |

     |-1  10|

D = (5 x 10) - ( 1 x -1) = 50 + 1 = 51

| 2   4|

|-3   9|

(2 x 9) - (4 x -3) = 18 + 12 = 30
