Find the sum of the first 63 terms of –19, -13, -7 …

Mathematics
1 answer:
Degger [83]2 years ago
7 0

You can tell this is an arithmetic sequence because it is a list of terms beginning with -19 that increase by 6 each term. Because of this, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic sequence, which is:

S = \dfrac{n}{2}[2 a_1 + d(n - 1)]

  • n is the number of terms in the sequence
  • a_1 is the starting term
  • d is the common difference among the terms

In this case, we can see that n = 63, a_1 = -19, and d = 6. Thus, we can use the formula:

S = \dfrac{63}{2} [2(-19) + 6(62)] = 10,521


Our answer is 10,521.

A plumber charges $130 2 hours of work and $235 for 5 hours of workWhat is the of change in dollars per hour
kogti [31]

Answer:

235

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure the rates per hr.

110/3 = 36 2/3

160/5 = 32.

So, the rates are not the same.

Knowing a bit about plumbers, they normally charge a basic fee to just show up, and then they charge per hr.

In cases like these, where we're asked to project to a new data point (in this case an 8-hr job), you should immediately think of a graph. The x-axis would be the hours worked. The y-axis would be the charge for the work (the cost of the job).

We're given two pairs of values:

(3,110) and (5,160).

The next step is to fit a line to them.

y = mx+b is the general equation for a line.

m = the slope = rise/run = change in y / change in x

Call the change in y, dy (for delta y).

Call the change in x, dx (for delta x).

m = dy/dx = 50/2 = 25

The slope is thus 25, which means for each hour, the price goes up by $25. That means the plumber charges $25/hr.

We also know the plumber charges $110 for a 3-hr job. 3*25 = $75. So the base charge would be $110-75 = $35.

y = 25x + 35

Checking this formula at x=3, we know it is 110.

Checking it at x=5, we obtain:

y = 25*5 + 35 = 125 + 35 = 160.

That checks.

Now to figure an 8-hr job, set x=8 and use the equation"

y = 25*8 + 35.

y = 200 + 35.

y = 235.

That means an 8-hr job costs $235.

5 steps of writing the equation of a line
likoan [24]
Step 1: begin by writing the formula for slope intercept form
step2: substitute the given slope for X
step3: use the order pair you given (x,y) and substitute these values for the variables x and y in the equation
step4: solve for y ( y-intercept of the graph)
step5: rewrite the original equation in step 1 substituting the slope for x and the y-intercept for y

In circle O, ST is a diameter.
Andreas93 [3]

The value of x must be 25.0. The correct option is the second option-  25.0

<h3>Solving Linear equations </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the value of x

From the given diagram, we can write that

m ∠SOR + m ∠UOR + m ∠TOU = 180° (<em>Sum of angles on a straight line</em>)

∴ (2x +8)° + (3x - 14)° + (3x -14)° = 180°

2x° + 8° + 3x° -14° + 3x° -14° = 180°

Collect like terms

2x° + 3x° + 3x° + 8° - 14° -14° = 180°

8x° -20° = 180°

8x° = 180° + 20°

8x° = 200°

x = 200/8

x = 25.0

Hence, the value of x must be 25.0. The correct option is the second option-  25.0
