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

erica [24]3 years ago

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

Find (r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t) for all numbers r, s, and t. (a) 0 (b) 2 (c) 2rt (d) 2(s-r) (t-s) (e) 2(r-s) (t-s)
lyudmila [28]
Notice that the 2 expressions have 2 common terms.

(r-s) is just (s-r) times (-1)

similarly

(t-s) is just (s-t) times (-1)

this means that :

(r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t)=-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)

the 2 minuses in the first multiplication cancel each other so we have:

-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)=(s-r) (s-t)+(s-r) (s-t)=2(s-r) (s-t)
