Using Gauss's method
Total number of terms = [15-(-129)]/4+1=36+1=37
Add
S=15+11+7+....-125-129
S=-129-125-...+7+11+15
--------------------------------
2S=-114-114-114...(37 times)
=>
sum=S=(1/2)*(-114)*37=-2109


Using AP, T(n)=15+11+7+....-129
T(n)=19-4n  => T(1)=15, T(37)=-129
S(n)=(1/2)(37)(T(1)+T(37)=(1/2)37(15-129)=2109

Which values of m and b will create a system of equations with no solution? Select two options.
natima [27]

Using linear function concepts, a system of equations with no solutions is created when:

m = -2, b \neq \frac{3}{2}

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

The intersection of two lines is the solution of a system of equations. If two lines have the <u>same slope and different intercepts</u>, they will never intercept, that is, the system will not have a solution.

The lines are given as follows:

  • y = mx + b.
  • y = -2x + 3/2.

Hence, for a system with no solution, we need that:

m = -2, b \neq \frac{3}{2}
