Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the sum of the first 42 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer.
2,7,12
Solution
The sum is given by
SUM_n=n/2*(a_1+a_n)
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d
a_1=2, n=42, d=5
The 42nd term is therefore given by
a_42=2+(42-1)5=207
SUM_42=42/2*(2+207)=21*209=4389
The sum of the first 42 terms of the series, therefore, is 4389
Answer: m = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
8(3m+5)=2m-4
24m + 40 = 2m - 4
24m - 2m = -40 - 4
22m = -44
m = - 44/ 22
m = -2
6+(-5) is the same as 6-5 because when adding negative 5 to 6 you are basically subtracting a regular 5 from 6. So the + in front of the parenthesis makes the 5 a positive: 6+(-5) —— 6-5
Original price of the swimsuit = x
If something was discounted 65%, that means you are paying 35% for it.
(100% - 65% = 35% or 0.35)
x(0.35) = 20.30
divide both sides by 0.35
x = 58
The swimsuit was originally 58 dollars.
