A(n)=4+4(n-1)

a(n)=4+4n-4

a(n)=4n

76=4n

n=19

The sum of any arithmetic sequence (series are infinite) is:

(a+a(n))(n/2)

The average of the first and last terms times the number of terms, in this case we found that n=19 so:

19(4+76)/2=760

Answer:

The nth term of the arithmetic sequence is given by:

l= a+(n-1)d            .....[1]

and

the sum of the arithmetic sequence is:

S_n = \frac{n}{2}(a+l)              .....[2]

where,

a is the first term

d is the common difference of two consecutive term

l is the last term in the series

As per the statement:

The finite arithmetic series 4+8+12+16...+76

here, a = 4 and

Common difference(d) = 4

Since,

8-4 = 4,

12-8 = 4,

16-12 = 4 and so on

last term of the finite series(l) = 76

Substitute these in [1] we have

76 = 4+(n-1)4

Using distributive property, a \cdot (b+c) =a\cdot b+ a\cdot c

76 = 4+4n -4

Simplify:

76 = 4n

Divide both sides by 4 we have;

19 = n

or

n= 19

Substitute the given value and n = 19 in [2]

S_{19} = \frac{19}{2}(4+76) = \frac{19}{2} \cdot 80 = 19 \cdot 40 = 760

Therefore, the sum of the given finite arithmetic series is, 760

LA and B are vertical angles. If m_A = (5x + 5) and m_B = (4x + 29), then find the measure of_A.​
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

If A and B are vertical angles, then they are congruent, so their measures are equal.

This means

(5x + 5)º = (4x + 29)º

5x + 5 = 4x + 29

x = 24

Then angle A has measure (5*24 + 5)º = 125º.

Ceasar wants to save up his money to buy a house. He currently has $32,000 in his savings account and wants to have $275,000. Wh
fredd [130]

Answer:

75.9375%

Step-by-step explanation:

We apply the simple interest formula;

we first determine the amount of accrued interest to be earned;

interest = 275000 - 32000

             = 243000

Applying the simple interest formula;

I=\frac{P*R*T}{100}\\243000=\frac{32000*R*10}{100}\\ 243000=3200R\\R=75.9375
