Short Answer D
P(1) = 1(1+1)(2*1 + 1)/6
P(1) = 1(2)(2 +1) / 6
P(1) = 1(2)(3)/6
P(1) = 1
P(2) = 2(2+1)(2*2 + 1) / 6
P(2) = 2(3)(5) / 6
P(2) = 5 So this formula is adding as it goes along. To Find the Total all we need do is use the formula to calculate P(1) to P(7)
P(7) = 7*(7 + 1)(2*7 + 1)/6
P(7) = 7 * 8 * 15 / 6
P(7) = 7 * 4 * 5
P(7) = 140 <<<< Answer
Add 12 to both sides.
q-12 > 3
q > 15
ANSWER: q > 15
If the triangles are similar, then the corresponding ratio of their sides have equal ratios. Through ratio and proportion, we would determine the answer.
5/6 = x/9, where x is the length for side PN
Transposing the equation so that x is on the left side:
x = (5/6)*9
x = 7.5
