Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
The arithmetic series is 5, 7, 9, 11, ........., 23.
First u have to determine the no. of terms that can be done by using
Tₙ = [a + (n - 1)d]
Tₙ-------nth term
a---------first term
n---------no.of terms in the series
d---------common difference
here a = 5,d = 2.
let it contain n terms Tₙ= [a + (n-1)d]
Substitute Tₙ, a, and d in the equation
23 = 5 + (n - 1)2
Subtract 5 from each side.
18 = (n-1)2
Divide each side by 2
(n - 1) = 9
Add 1 to each side
n = 9 + 1 = 10
The sum of the arithmetic sequence formula: Sₙ= (n/2)[2a+(n-1)d]
Substitute Sₙ, a, n and d in the equation
Sₙ= (10/2)[2(5) + (10-1)2]
Sₙ= (5)[10 + (9)2]
Sₙ= 5[10 + 18]
Sₙ= 5[28] = 140
Therefore the sum of the arithmetic sequence is 140.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
a negative x negative is always a positive
a negative x positive is negative
a positive x positive is negative
We can find the bat's wholesale cost by working backwards -
Do $41 - 9 to get $32, then we can divide the 32 by the 4 to get $8.
Therefore, the wholesale cost of the bat is $8.
