Answer:

5778

Step-by-step explanation:

1+2+3+4+5+....+105+106+107

The sequence of numbers (1, 2, 3, … , 107) is arithmetic and when we are looking for the sum of a sequence, we call it a series. Thanks to Gauss, there is a special formula we can use to find the sum of a series:

S=n(n+1)/2=11556÷2=5778

S is the sum of the series and n is the number of terms in the series, in this case, 107

There are other ways to solve:

This is an arithmetic series, for which the formula is:

S = n[2a+(n-1)d]/2

where a is the first term, d is the difference between terms, and n is the number of terms.

For the sum of the first 107 whole numbers:

a = 1, d = 1, and n = 107

Therefore, sub into the formula:

S = 107[2(1)+(107-1)(1)]/2 =

107(2+106)/2=107*108/2=5778

so she blow out 5778 candless during her lifetime

Find the value of the following expression: (2^8 ⋅ 5^−5 ⋅ 19^0)^−2 ⋅ 5 to the power of negative 2 over 2 to the power of 3, whol
koban [17]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}=\dfrac{1425}{67108864}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\left(2^8\cdot5^{-5}\cdot19^0\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5^{-2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\ \text{and}\ a^0=1\ \text{and}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\left(2^8\cdot\dfrac{1}{5^5}\cdot1\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{\frac{1}{5^2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot228=\left(\dfrac{2^8}{5^5}\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{2^35^2}\right)^4\cdot228

=\dfrac{(2^8)^{-2}}{(5^5)^{-2}}\cdot\dfrac{1^4}{(2^3)^4(5^2)^4}\cdot228=\dfrac{2^{-16}}{5^{-10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{2^{12}5^8}\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^n=\dfrac{1}{a^{-n}}\to\dfrac{1}{a^n}=a^{-n}\\\\=2^{-16}\cdot5^{10}\cdot2^{-12}\cdot5^{-8}\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=2^{-16+(-12)}\cdot5^{10+(-8)}\cdot228=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot228\\\\=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot4\cdot57=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot2^2\cdot57=2^{-28+2}\cdot5^2\cdot57\\\\=2^{-26}\cdot5^2\cdot57=\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}

\large\boxed{\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}=\dfrac{1425}{67108864}}
