Your method is completely correct. The first term will be 6 and each subsequent term can be obtained by adding 6 to the previous one, meaning the common difference is 6. The number of terms is given by the highest number that is divisible by 6 and dividing it by 6; that is 996/6 = 166
Then we simply apply the formula for arithmetic sequence sum:
S = n/2 [2a₁ + (n - 1)d]
S = 166/2 [ 2(6) + (166 - 1)6]
S = 83,166

Answer:
there are 70 possible choices for the four locations to apply the new ointment
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have a total of 8 locations ( 4 to the new ointment and 4 to the control) , each one can be chosen and since the order of the locations that are chosen for the new ointment is not relevant , then we know that the number of choices is given by the number of combinations of 4 elements in 8
number of combinations = 8 possible locations to the first ointment * 7 possible locations to the second ( since the first one was already located) * 6 to the third * 5 locations for the fourth / number of times the same combination is repeated ( the same locations but in different positions) = 8*7*6*5 / (4 possible positions for the first ointment* 3 possible positions to the second ointment (since the first one was already located * 2 possible positions of the third * 1 possible position of the fourth)
therefore
number of combinations = 8*7*6*5/(4*3*2*1 ) = 8!/((8-4)!*4!) = 70 possible combinations
thus there are 70 possible choices for the four locations to apply the new ointment
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x2+y2+ax+by+c=0
Step 1: Add -by to both sides.
ax+by+x2+y2+c+−by=0+−by
ax+x2+y2+c=−by
Step 2: Add -x^2 to both sides.
ax+x2+y2+c+−x2=−by+−x2
ax+y2+c=−bax+y2+c+−y2=−by−x2+−y2
ax+c=−by−x2−y2
Step 4: Add -c to both sides.
ax+c+−c=−by−x2−y2+−c
ax=−by−x2−y2−c
Step 5: Divide both sides by x.
ax
x
=
−by−x2−y2−c
