So even postive integers are by defention in form 2k where k is a natural number so
let the sum of even integers to n=S
S=2(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+......+k-1+k
divide bith sides of equation 1 by 2
0.5S=1+2+3+4+5+...........+k-1+k
S=2(k+(k-1)+..............................+2+1)
divide both sides of equation 2 by 2
0.5S=k+k-1+..............................+2+1)
by adding both we will get
___________________________
S=(k+1)(k)
so the sum will be equal to
S=
{k}^{2}  + k
so let us test the equation
for the first 3 even number there sums will be
2+4+6=12
by our equation 3^2+3=12
gave us the same answer so our equation is correct

An online photo services charge $20 to make a photo book with 16 pages each extra page cost a dollar 75 the cost to ship the com
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The expression to determine the total cost in dollars is y=25+0.75x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Service charge to make a photo book = $20

Cost per extra page = $0.75

Cost to ship the complete photo book = $5

We need to write expression to determine the total cost in dollars.

Solution:

Let the number of extra pages be denoted by 'x'.

Also Let the Total cost be denoted by 'y'.

Now we can say that;

Total cost will be equal to sum of Service charge to make a photo book and  Cost per extra page multiplied by number of extra pages and Cost to ship the complete photo book.

framing in equation form we get;

y=20+0.75x+5\\\\y=25+0.75x

Hence the expression to determine the total cost in dollars is y=25+0.75x.

solong [7]
 <span>Northwest is 45 degrees north of west. If a car travels a distance x miles northwest, its northerly component gains x/sqrt(2) miles and its easterly component LOSES xsqrt(2)/ miles. 

Resultant height is h = 4500 + 100x/sqrt(2) - 75x/sqrt(2) = [25/sqrt(2)]x + 4500 
dh/dt = [25/sqrt(2)]dx/dt = [25/sqrt(2)]v </span>
