The sum of any arithmetic sequence is the average of the first and last terms times the number of terms.

Any term in an arithmetic sequence is:

a(n)=a+d(n-1), where a=initial term, d=common difference, n=term number

So the first term is a, and the last term is a+d(n-1) so the sum can be expressed as:

s(n)(a+a+d(n-1))(n/2)

s(n)=(2a+dn-d)(n/2)

s(n)=(2an+dn^2-dn)/2

However we need to know how many terms are in the sequence.

a(n)=a+d(n-1), and we know a=3 and d=2 and a(n)=21 so

21=3+2(n-1)

18=2(n-1)

9=n-1

10=n so there are 10 terms in the sequence.

s(n)=(2an+dn^2-dn)/2, becomes, a=3, d=2, n=10

s(10)=(2*3*10+2*10^2-2*10)/2

s(10)=(60+200-20)/2

s(10)=240/2

s(10)=120

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Correct option: e) a two-way table.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case the store wants to see whether there is a relationship between the satisfaction level of the customer and their gender.

In statistics when there is a need to analyze or derive a relation between two categorical variables one should use a two-way table.

Categorical variables are qualitative variables that take on specific values that are usually labels. For example, grades obtained in an exam, gender, etc.

In this case the two categorical variables are: Gender and Satisfaction level.

To study the relation between the gender of a customer and their satisfaction level use a two-way table.
