Answer: -1 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first integer be x and the second x +2 , clearly, the larger is x + 2.

From the statement given

x + 2 = 3x + 4

x - 3x = 4 - 2

-2x = 2

x = -1

The second integer is -1 + 2 = 1

Which of the following expressions correctly uses the properties of summations to represent

madam [21]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

$7 \cdot \sum_{i=1}^{18} i^2 + 9 \cdot 18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: $\sum_{i=1}^{18} (7i^2+9)$

Using properties of summation:

$\sum_{i=1}^{n} (a+bi) =\sum_{i=1}^{n} a + \sum_{i=1}^{n} bi$

$\sum_{i=1}^{n} a = an$

Using properties of summation in the given expression we have;

$\sum_{i=1}^{18} (7i^2+9)$

= $\sum_{i=1}^{18} 7i^2 + \sum_{i=1}^{18} 9$

= $7 \cdot \sum_{i=1}^{18} i^2 + 9 \cdot 18$

Therefore, the following given expression uses the properties of summation to represents is, $7 \cdot \sum_{i=1}^{18} i^2 + 9 \cdot 18$
