<span>let's say, you have 2(x+5)=10 
What you  do is multiply the x and the 5 by 2 so it now looks like 
2x+10=10 

The act of multiplying the inside numbers by the number outside the parenthesis is the distributive property. Now using distributive property to remove grouping symbols is  similar 
</span>Lets say you have 18 + {2 + 3 (6 -1*2)} first you would multiply 2by1

= 18 + {2 + 3(6 - 2)} then subrtact 2 from 6 

= 18 + {2 + 3(4)} then multiply 3by 4  take away () grouping signal

= 18 + {2 + 12} then add 2 and 12

= 18 + {14} then take away the last grouping signals 

= 18 + 14 then add 18 and 14 

= 32

Given the Arithmetic series A 1 + A 2 + A 3 + A 4 A1+A2+A3+A4 14 + 18 + 22 + 26 + . . . + 86 What is the value of sum?
postnew [5]

Answer:

950

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is 4, so the general term can be written:

... an = 14 + 4(n -1)

The value of n for the last term is ...

... 86 = 14 + 4(n -1) . . . . . the computation for the last term, 86

... 72 = 4(n -1) . . . . . . . . . subtract 14

... 18 = n -1 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

... 19 = n . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 1

Your series has 19 terms. The first term is 14 and the last is 86, so the average term is (14+86)/2 = 50. Since there are 19 terms, the sum of them is ...

... 19×50 = 950

Does getting a degree mean you can be a detective
inessss [21]
It depends on what kind of degree you have. Being a detective needs training and special classes- you can get degrees for being a bet or a data analysts. It depends on what sort of degree you have.
