Does anyone know what 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 is because I keep getting 32 1/2, but the answer is 38 1/2? If you know, please explain.

These steps may help you out!

8 1/2 = 17/2

4 1/2 = 9/2

To get this you do⬆8(2) =16 + 1 = 17/2 ; 4(2) = 8 + 1 = 9/2

Change the problem to:

17/2 (9/2)

17(9)/2(2) = ?


So, 17(9) / 2(2) = 153 / 4

153 / 4 as a mixed fraction/number: 38 1/4

Aliun [14]
The account balance resulting from a principal of P and an interest rate of r over t years is
  A = P(1 +rt)
Substitute the given values and solve for t.
  11424 = 5600(1 + .08t)
  (11424/5600) -1 = .08t
  1.04/.08 = t = 13

Hector left his investment for 13 years.

Remark
When you take the limit of  \lim_{ 0} \frac{sin(x)}{x} the odd result you get is 1.  Later on you will be able to use calculus to show this. For now just take limits of sin(x)/x and make sure you are feeding radians into your calculator. 

Now the only question is what is this thing doing?
If a is a constant in \lim_{0  \frac{sin(ax)}{x} then the result = a.

So that's basically all you need to know to solve your problem. 

Series
Each term in the series will be
a*(sin(ax)/x) = a * [sin(ax)/x] * 1 = a * a = a^2 

The series will look like this.
1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 + 36 + 49 + 64 + 81 + 100 There is a way of summing this using n notation, but you could just as easily just add the results.
<span>
The formula for this series (if you want a sum) is n*(n+1)*(2n+1) / 6
</span>n = 10
Sum = 10*(11)(21)/6
Sum = 385

Does adding it by hand bring up 385?
