Answer:
495
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the sum of the first 18 terms you have to find the 18th term and the first term using the equation given.
a1=3(1)-1 a1=2
a18=3(18)-1 a18= 53
Then plug in 53 for an, 18 for n, and 2 in for a1 in the sum equation: Sn=n/2(a1+an)
Sn=18/2(2+53) Solve for sn= 495
Answer:
All the exponents in the algebraic expression must be non-negative integers in order for the algebraic expression to be a polynomial. As a general rule of thumb if an algebraic expression has a radical in it then it isn't a polynomial
so no its not.
This is a proportion. First you take the numerator times the denominator that is already solved. In this case you will take 5 times 7 and get 35. You then take 35 divided by 4 and get your answer.
The number is assumed to be x
x of 40% = 56
x * (40/100) = 56
x = 5600 / 40
x = 140
