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

A student charges $31.50 for 3 hours of babysitting. If the amount the student earns babysitting is proportional to the hours sp
vodomira [7]

Answer:

C) y is equal to 10.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

$31.50 is charged for <em>3  </em>hours so, for 1 hour we need to divide 31.50 by 3, which results in 10.50. So 1 hour of babysitting is $10.50

this is because x is equal to the number of hours they babysit. we do not know the actual so it is replaced with x

and y is equal to the sum of 10.5x because we multiply the number of hours worked, and the amount per hour.
