Because 17 - 14 = 14 - 11 = 3, the ratio of the arithmetic series is 3;

Then, A4 = 8 - 3 = 5; A3 = 5 - 3 = 2; A2 = 2 - 3 = -1; A1 = -1 - 3 = -4.

But 68 = A1 + ( n- 1 ) x r;

68 = -4 + ( n - 1) x 3;

( n - 1 ) x 3 = 72;

n - 1 = 24;

n = 25;

Finally, Sn = ( A1 + An) x n / 2; then, S25 = ( - 4 + 68) x 25/2;

S25 = 64 x 25 / 2;

S25 = 32 x 25;

S25 = 800;

The value of sum is 800.

Here the first term, a = 8, common difference, d= 11-8= 3 and the last term , l = 68

So before finding the sum, first we need to find the number of terms, and for that we use the formula

a(n) = a+(n-1)d

68 = 8+(n-1)3

Subtracting 8 from both sides

60 = (n-1)3

Dividing both sides by 3

20=n-1

Adding 1 to both sides

n =21

Now we use the formula of sum of n terms of arithmetic series, which is

S= \frac{n}{2}(2a+(n-1)d) = \frac{21}{2}(2(8)+(21-1)3) = \frac{21}{2}(16+60)

= \frac{21}{2}(76) = 38*21=798

Please Help!<br><br> What is a cubic polynomial function in standard form with zeros –5, –1, and –5?
yan [13]
FIRST. find the factors:
X=-5 --> (X + 5) = 0
x = 1--> (X - 1) = 0
x =3 --> (x - 3) = 0
3
NEXT, multiply all the factors:
(x + 5) (x - 1) (x - 3) = 0
-> X3 + x2 - 17x +15 = 0
-> f(x) = x3 + x2 - 17x +15 or
y=x3 + x2
17x + 15

A rectangle with an area of 5/8 ft² is dilated by a factor of 8. What is the area of the dilated rectangle?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

40 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the original rectangle be L and original Breadth be B

it is given that the original area  is 5/8 ft²

i.e.

Original Length x Original Breadth = Original Area, or,

LB = 5/8 ft² ------------------(1)

Given that the dilation factor is 8,

Hence,

New Length = 8L and New Breadth = 8B

THerefore,

New Area = 8L x 8B

= 64 LB  (from (1) above , we know that LB = 5/8 ft², substitute into expression)

= 64 (5/8)

= 40 ft²
