Answer:

C) 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is an Arithmetic Sequence, where

First term a = - 3

Common Difference d = 1-(-3)= 4

n = 6

S_6=?  \\  \\  \because \: S_n =  \frac{n}{2}  \{2a + (n - 1)d \} \\  \\  \therefore \: S_6 =  \frac{6}{2}  \{2 \times ( - 3) + (6 - 1)4 \} \\  \\ \therefore \: S_6 =  3  \{ - 6 + 20\} \\  \\ \therefore \: S_6 =  3  \times 14  \\  \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \: S_6 =  42}}

Answer:

C. 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence with common difference d = 4 and first term a = -3.

Sum of n terms = (n/2)[2a + (n - 1)d]

Sum of  six terms = (6/2)[2(-3) + (6 - 1)4]

= 3 * (-6 + 20)

= 42.

Chandler Heisinger buys a monthly metro card, which entitles him to unlimited subway travel in New York City, for $81 per month.
ANTONII [103]
Let r be the number of rides Chandler takes in a month. Then the cost with the MetroCard is still $81, but the cost without the MetroCard is 2r. So we can set up an equation representing what we want: "The cost with a MetroCard of r rides in a month is less than the cost without a MetroCard." In equations,
81\ \textless \ 2r \\ r\ \textgreater \ 81/2\ \textgreater \ 40 \\&#10;r \geq 41
Thus, at a minimum, Chandler must take 41 rides for his MetroCard to be cheaper than not having it.
