An = -2n(n + 3)
a(15) = -2(15)(15 + 3) = -30(18) = -540

Find the sum of the counting numbers from 1 to 25 inclusive. In other words, if S = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 24 + 25, find the value of

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

325

Step-by-step explanation:

You must have heard about Arithmetic Progressions (AP)

Arithmetic progressions are a series of numbers such that every successive number is the sum of a constant number and the previous number.

Our very own counting numbers form AP

For example :-

2 = 1 + 1

3 = 2 + 1

4 = 3 + 1

The number in bold (1) is that constant number which is added to a number to form its successive number.

To find the sum of series forming AP, we use the formula :-

$sum = \frac{n}{2} \{ a + a _{n} \}$

here,

n is the number of terms
a is the first number of the series
an is the last number of the series

So we'll use all this information to find the sum of continuous numbers from 1 to 25 where 1 is the first term(a) and 25 is the last(an).

and n is 25

$S = \frac{25}{2}\{ 1 +25\}$

$= \frac{25 \times 26}{2}$

$= 25 \times 13$

$= 325$

So, the value of S comes out to be 325.

What is the monomial if a square of a monomial is:1 9/16 a12b6

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

$1\dfrac{1}{4}a^6b^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

A square of a monomial is $1\dfrac{9}{16}a^{12}b^6$ that is $\dfrac{25}{16}a^{12}b^{6}$

Use properties of exponents:

$(a^m)^n=a^{mn}\\ \\\dfrac{a^m}{b^m}=\left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^m\\ \\a^mb^m=(ab)^m$

Note that

$\dfrac{25}{16}=\dfrac{5^2}{4^2}=\left(\dfrac{5}{4}\right)^2\\ \\a^{12}=a^{6\cdot 2}=(a^6)^2\\ \\b^6=b^{3\cdot 2}=(b^3)^2$

Then

$\dfrac{25}{16}a^{12}b^{6}=\left(\dfrac{5}{4}\right)^2\cdot (a^6)^2\cdot (b^{3})^2=\left(\dfrac{5}{4}a^6b^3\right)^2$

So, the monomial is

$\dfrac{5}{4}a^6b^3=1\dfrac{1}{4}a^6b^3$
