Your method is completely correct. The first term will be 6 and each subsequent term can be obtained by adding 6 to the previous one, meaning the common difference is 6. The number of terms is given by the highest number that is divisible by 6 and dividing it by 6; that is 996/6 = 166
Then we simply apply the formula for arithmetic sequence sum:
S = n/2 [2a₁ + (n - 1)d]
S = 166/2 [ 2(6) + (166 - 1)6]
S = 83,166

If 35% of a number is 21 and 90% of the same number is 54, find 55% of that number.

inn [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is 60:

Divide the amount and decimal of the percentage to be extracted

Case 1

$\frac{21}{0.35} =60$

Case 2

$\frac{54}{0.9} =60$

Now the 55% of this number is:

$60(0.55)=33$

Hope this helps

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!! Given tan(theta) = 4/3 and pi < theta < (3pi)/2, find cos(2theta).

babymother [125]

Answer: $\cos 2 \theta = \dfrac{-7}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $\tan \theta = \dfrac{4}{3}$ and $\pi < \theta< \dfrac{3\pi }{2}$

To find: $\cos 2 \theta$

Now as we know

$\cos 2x = \dfrac{1- \tan ^2 x}{1+ \tan ^2 x}$

So we have

$\cos 2 \theta = \dfrac{1-(\dfrac{4}{3} )^2}{1+(\dfrac{4}{3} )^2} \\\\\Rightarrow \cos 2 \theta = \dfrac{1- \dfrac{16}{9} }{1+ \dfrac{16}{9} } = \dfrac{\dfrac{9-16}{9} }{\dfrac{9+16}{9}} = \dfrac{-7}{25}$

Therefore d. is the correct option

Hence , $\cos 2 \theta = \dfrac{-7}{25}$
