First term ,a=4 , common difference =4-7=-3, n =50
sum of first 50terms= (50/2)[2×4+(50-1)(-3)]
=25×[8+49]×-3
=25×57×-3
=25× -171
= -42925
derivation of the formula for the sum of n terms
Progression, S
S=a1+a2+a3+a4+...+an
S=a1+(a1+d)+(a1+2d)+(a1+3d)+...+[a1+(n−1)d] → Equation (1)
S=an+an−1+an−2+an−3+...+a1
S=an+(an−d)+(an−2d)+(an−3d)+...+[an−(n−1)d] → Equation (2)
Add Equations (1) and (2)
2S=(a1+an)+(a1+an)+(a1+an)+(a1+an)+...+(a1+an)
2S=n(a1+an)
S=n/2(a1+an)
Substitute an = a1 + (n - 1)d to the above equation, we have
S=n/2{a1+[a1+(n−1)d]}
S=n/2[2a1+(n−1)d]
Answer:
The answer is either 1, 3, or 5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 6 sides on a singular die and the die is rolled twice the first time it rolls onto 4 and the second onto an odd number. The only odd numbers on a 6 sided die are 1, 3, and 5.
The 18th sequence is - 41
An inverse operation is writing the opposite sign to another sign
subtract r from c to get 8x+10
replace x with 3
8(3) +10 = 34 which in hundreds is 3400 dollars
the answer is C
