Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = 3(1) - 7 = - 4
a2 = 3(2) - 7 = -1
d = a2 - a1
d = -1 - (-4)
d = -1 + 4
d = 3
a60 = 3(60) - 7
a60 = 180 - 7
a60 = 173
n = 60
Sum = (a1 + a60) * n / 2
Sum = (-4 + 173) * 60/2
Sum = (169)*30
Sum = 5070
==================
Just to check, we'll use the second summation formula
d = 3
n = 60
a1 = -4
Sum = (2*a1 + (n - 1)*d )*n / 2
Sum = (2*(-4) + (60 -1)*3)* 60/2
Sum = (-8 + 59*3) * 30
Sum = (177 - 8)*30
Sum = 169 * 30
Sum = 5070
Same answer.
Answer:
$25.80
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the price of the meal with sales tax. Multiply 6.75% by $72.50.
72.50 * 0.0675 = 4.89
Add this value onto 72.50.
72.50 + 4.89 = 77.39
Divide this amount by 3.
77.39 / 3 = 25.7966...
Round this to the nearest hundredth because we're dealing with money.
$25.80 is how much each person should pay.
The area would be 36 each side is 6 inches therefore you would multiply 6 by 6 to find the area

Among all choices we have 5, so
x = 5
x - 5 = 0
Let's divide the expression by (x - 5) using the long division:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40
(x - 5) * x² = x³ - 5x² Subtract
____________________________
-6x² + 38x - 40
(x - 5) * (-6x) = -6x² + 30x Subtract
____________________________
8x - 40
(x - 5) * 8 = 8x - 40 Sutract
____________________________
0
Thus: x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = (x - 5)(x² - 6x + 8)
Now, let's simplify x² - 6x + 8.
x² - 6x + 8 = x² - 2x - 4x + 8 =
= x² - 2*x - (4*x - 4*2) =
= x(x - 2) - 4(x - 2) =
= (x - 4)(x - 2)
Hence:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = (x - 5)(x - 4)(x - 2)
To calculate zero:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = 0
(x - 5)(x - 4)(x - 2) = 0
x - 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 or x - 2 = 0
x = 5 or x = 4 or x = 2
Since the number before the number in the tenth place (7) is greater than 5 (8), you will be rounding up. So your answer is 9.80
