\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite arithmetic sequence}\\\\
S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ a_n=n^{th}~value\\
----------\\
\stackrel{least}{a_1}=128\\\\
\stackrel{greatest}{a_n}=172
\end{cases}

\bf S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(128~+~172)\implies S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(300)\implies S_n=150n
\\\\\\
\textit{but we also know that sum of all interior angles is }180(n-2)
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{sum of the angles}}{S_n}=\stackrel{\textit{sum of the angles}}{180(n-2)}=150n
\\\\\\
180n-360=150n\implies 30n=360\implies n=\cfrac{360}{30}\implies n=12

Levart [38]
A) the median is the middle measurement. Their ages could be 13, 14 and 15.
B) 2 students must be younger than 13
C) Like I said, the median is the middle measurement. If you have a list of numbers, you have to order them and take the middle number.

Solve for x:<br><br> 2(3x - 9) = 18x<br><br> x = -3/2<br><br> x = 3/2<br><br> x = 0<br><br> x = 6
Mila [183]
Remember yo can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

so
remember distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac

so first distribute
2(3x)+2(-9)=18x
6x-18=18x
minus 6x both sides
-18=12x
divide both sides by 12
-18/12=x
-9/6=x
-3/2=x

easier way is to first divide both sides by 2


x=-3/2
