We are given with the <span>arithmetic series an = -11(n-1) + 19 and we are asked to determine which spreadsheet would be used to compute the first five partial sums of the series. Looking at each of the series, the answer is OPTION D.</span>
Answer:
Postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
An axiom or postulate is a statement that is accepted without proof and regarded as fundamental to a subject.
Answer: True, False, False, False, False
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
a) 5x - 7(x - 1)
5x - 7x + 7
-2x + 7 ⇒ a = -2, b = 7 <em>One Solution</em>
b) 3(x - 5) - 7
3x - 15 - 7
3x - 22 ⇒ a = 3, b = -22 <em>One Solution</em>
c) 2 - 7x + 3 + 4x
4x - 7x + 3 + 2
-3x + 5 ⇒ a = -3, b = 5 <em>One Solution</em>
d) -3(x - 3) - 1
-3x + 9 - 1
-3x + 8 ⇒ a = -3, b = 8 <em>One Solution</em>
e) -5x + 2 + 2x + 4
-5x + 2x + 2 + 4
-3x + 6 ⇒ a = -3, b = 6 <em>One Solution</em>
All you need to do is 8 divided by 6. When you do so you get: 1.3 which could also be written as 1 3/8.
So each person gets 1 whole piece and 3/8 of another piece.
