It'd be easier to do #18 if y ou were to break it up:
14* (first term + 14th term)
Sum from n=1 to 14 of n = S = ---------------------------------
14 2
14(1+14)
= ---------------- = 7(15) = 105
2
The sum of twice that is 210. The sum of "1 from n=1 to n=14" is just 14.
The final sum is 210 + 14 = 224 (answer)
Answer:
5x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
= -8x - 12 - 3x + 5
= -8x - 3x - 12 + 5
= 5x-7
Let us set up an equation, to determine the list price. X represents the original price
.12 * x = 25
In order to solve for X, you must divide .12 from both sides
x = 25/.12
After you divide, you should get the number 208.33
25/.12 = 208.33
So, the original list price is $208.33
