Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 15 positive even number

I conclude that the sum will be even because any even number can be represented by 2n where n is a whole number
and even numbers are 2 apart, so
the sum of the first 15 are
2n+2(n+1)+2(n+2) etc until we get to 2(n+14)
we can undistribute the 2 from all of them and get
2(n+n+1+n+2...n+14)
and we are sure that whatever is in the parenthasees is a whole number because whole+whole=whole
therefor, the sum is even

if you did want to find the sum then
an=2n
the 15th even number is 30
the first is 2
S15=15(2+30)/2=15(32)/2=15(16)=240
which is even

I need to know how to graph and use a table to solve for y=3x+0
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On a table, you'd have two columns: one for your input(x) and one for your output(y). If given an x value, put it into the equation to solve for y, and if you have a y value, put it into the equation for x. You can also come up with your own x values and put them into the equation if you need to create a table from scratch I'm not sure what you're asking but this will help you fill in a table. Here's and example for this equation.

X              Y

1                3

2               6

3               9

Graphs are pretty simple. Just find a value on the x-axis (horizontal), find the point on the line above or below this value, and look at what number it is for the y value. You can do this backwards if you need to find y when given x.

Is 3z-1 in standard form?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Yes because

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 3z-1 in standard form?

Yes becausestandard form of a polynomial, the value in the power of the variable such as z in the equation reduces from left to right. Therefore, 3z - 1 is in standard form since the z term comes to the left of the constant term
