If you use the first answer, the equation becomes 2x + 2y = 16. You could subtract this from equation Q to eliminate x.
The second answer makes equation P -2x - 2y = -16. You could add this to equation Q to eliminate x. You can use both of these methods to eliminate the x term, but if you can only choose one, you should choose the second option.

The formula for the sum of n terms in an arithmetic progression is:
S = n/2 * (2a + (n-1)d)
Here, the common difference, d, is 8 and the first term, a, is 1. Substituting these into the formula, we get:
S = n/2 * (2*1 + 8(n - 1))
S = n + 4n² - 4n
S = 4n² - 3n
The answer is A.
I think it the second one no the 3 one you chose !
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2)² - 4 =
4(4) - 4 = 12
3(2)² - 3(4)
3(4) - 12
12 - 12 = 0.
It exceeds the value by 12 :)
