A=+ or - 5 bc -5x-5 or 5x5 equals to 25
This is a geometric sequence, so use the formula for the sum of a geometric sequence:
Sum = (a(r^n - 1))/(r - 1)
where a is the first term, -5
r is the common ratio, 5
and n is the number of terms
Thus,
Sum = ((-5)(5^6 - 1))/(5-1) = -19530
The numbers are 5 and 12.
Smaller number = x
Larger number = y
x +y =17
y = 3x - 3
x +3x -3 = 17
4x = 20
x = 5
smaller number is 5
y = 3(5) - 3
y = 12
larger number is 12.
500 or 600 depending on the maths question
Answer:
x+1/x-1 +1 / x+1/x-1 -1= x
