Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest method is "brute force". Calculate each term and add them up.
∑ = 3(1) + 3(2) + 3(3) + 3(4) + 3(5)
∑ = 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15
∑ = 45

∑ = (2×1)² + (2×2)² + (2×3)² + (2×4)²
∑ = 4 + 16 + 36 + 64
∑ = 120

∑ = (2×3−10) + (2×4−10) + (2×5−10) + (2×6−10)
∑ = -4 + -2 + 0 + 2
∑ = -4
4. 1 + 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/64 + 1/256
This is a geometric sequence where the first term is 1 and the common ratio is 1/4. The nth term is:
a = 1 (1/4)ⁿ⁻¹
So the series is:

5. -5 + -1 + 3 + 7 + 11
This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -5 and the common difference is 4. The nth term is:
a = -5 + 4(n−1)
a = -5 + 4n − 4
a = 4n − 9
So the series is:

Answer:
1/8 or 0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the length of the sides of the square ABCD.
Therefore, the length of CN and CM is x/2.
The area of the triangle MCN is:

The area of the square ABCD is:

Thus, the probability that a random point lies in the triangle MCN is:

The probability that the point will lie in the triangle MCN is 1/8 or 0.125.
Answer:
First get the formula for your pattern in the form of TN. Where d represents your difference and a represents your first term. Then equate the -401 to your formula and solve for n
Answer:
Gio planned to 6 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
this is because 5 - 80% = 1
which means he wanted to run 1 more mile
which also means that he planned to run 6 miles
