Lynne ran farther and by 7/8 miles
You can tell Lynne ran further because she ran 3 whole miles while shelly only ran 2 whole miles. Now you have to subtract to see how much Lynne had ran more.
You found a common denominator between 8 and 4. 4 can turn into 8. so you multiply 4x2 and 1x2 to get a mixed number of 2 2/8
Now you have to turn 3 1/8 because you cannot subtract 2/8 from 1/8. You can turn the fraction into 2 9/8 because there are 8 pieces in a whole.
2 9/8 - 2 2/8 = 0 7/8
Hope this helps! :)
Whats the question??????????????????????
10/10 = 1
so the are 10 tenths in 1 whole
Answer:Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence -4,-6,-8..., in order to get sigma notation to represent the sum of the first seven terms of the sequence, we need to first calculate the sum of the first seven terms of the sequence as shown;
The sum of an arithmetic series is expressed as ![S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2a%2B%28n-1%29d%5D)
n is the number of terms
a is the first term of the sequence
d is the common difference
Given parameters
n = 7, a = -4 and d = -6-(-4) = -8-(-6) = -2
Required
Sum of the first seven terms of the sequence
![S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[2(-4)+(7-1)(-2)]\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[-8+(6)(-2)]\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[-8-12]\\\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2} * -20\\\\S_7 = -70](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_7%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%28-4%29%2B%287-1%29%28-2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%5B-8%2B%286%29%28-2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%5B-8-12%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%20%2A%20-20%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20-70)
The sum of the nth term of the sequence will be;
![S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2(-4)+(n-1)(-2)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[-8+(-2n+2)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[-6-2n]\\\\S_n = \frac{-6n}{2} - \frac{2n^2}{2}\\S_n = -3n-n^2\\\\S_n = -n(3+n)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%28-4%29%2B%28n-1%29%28-2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B-8%2B%28-2n%2B2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B-6-2n%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B-6n%7D%7B2%7D%20-%20%20%5Cfrac%7B2n%5E2%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20-3n-n%5E2%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20-n%283%2Bn%29)
The sigma notation will be expressed as
. <em>The limit ranges from 1 to 7 since we are to find the sum of the first seven terms of the series.</em>
I believe x=15. Because you’ll just plug them in
