Answer= 6.5y+12
distribute the 5 in the parentheses:
(-6y-3) + (15+12.5y)
(you can take away the parentheses after this step)
then add like terms together.
12.5y + (-6y) = 6.5y
15 + (-3) = 12
make it one expression.
6.5y + 12
Answer:
x = 22°
the angles are: 63° and 117°
Step-by-step explanation:
a linear pair of angles total together to be 180°
so:
3x - 3 + 5x + 7 = 180
combune like terms:
8x = 176
divide both sides of the equation by 8:
x = 22°
the angles are: 63° and 117°
The answer for the first one is 1/8 and the answer to the second one is 1/2
The answer choices are sufficiently far apart that you can work this backward. The sum will be ...
236,196*(1 + 1/3 + 1/9 + 1/27 + ...)
so a reasonable estimate can be given by an infinite series with a common ratio of 1/3. That sum is
236,196*(1/(1 - 1/3)) = 236,196*(3/2)
Without doing any detailed calculation, you know the best answer choice is ...
354,292
_____
There are log(236196/4)/log(3) + 1 = 11 terms* in the series, so the sum will be found to be 4(3^11 -1)/(3-1) = 2*(3^11-1) = 354,292.
Using the above approach (working backward from the last term), the sum will be 236,196*(1-(1/3)^11)/(1-(1/3)) = 236,196*1.49999153246 = 354,292
___
* If you just compute log(236196/4)/log(3) = 10 terms, then your sum comes out 118,096--a tempting choice. However, you must realize that the last term is larger than this, so this will not be the sum. (In fact, the sum is this value added to the last term.)
