Given expression:
2x(x + 7)-(3x +1);
To distribute implies to spread a process equally in an expression. Often times, the distributive property is used for expressions inside parentheses;
2x(x + 7)-(3x +1)
Distribute 2x over the first parentheses;
the negative sign distributes over the second part
= (2x² + 14x) - 3x -1
= 2x² + 14x -3x -1
Add like terms;
= 2x² + 11x -1
This expression 2x² + 11x -1 is equal to the given one
Since the common difference is 6, we can assume that the sequence is arithmetic, with rule
T(n)=6n+5 where T(1)=11
T(9)=6(9)+5=59
Your answer is 138.61440
Hope this helps.
