Hello!

Interval notation is written using brackets or parentheses. Brackets mean that the value of the corresponding side is equal to the function. Parentheses are the opposite of brackets in this case, and it is not part of the equation.

I will post the graph of this equation below.

Therefore, the domain of this equation in interval notation is (-∞, 6/7).

Note that it is parentheses not brackets. The graph does not go past 6/7, and infinity is not a number, it is a concept.

The 4 is in the tenth place...so you have to look at the number beside it to see if you round up or down. It's a 6, which is greater than 5 so you round up.

How many terms of the arithmetic sequence {1,22,43,64,85,…} will give a sum of 2332? Show all steps including the formulas used

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

There's a slight problem with your question, but we'll get to that...

Consecutive terms of the sequence are separated by a fixed difference of 21 (22 = 1 + 21, 43 = 22 + 21, 64 = 43 + 21, and so on), so the n-th term of the sequence, a (n), is given recursively by

• a (1) = 1

• a (n) = a (n - 1) + 21 … … … for n > 1

We can find the explicit rule for the sequence by iterative substitution:

a (2) = a (1) + 21

a (3) = a (2) + 21 = (a (1) + 21) + 21 = a (1) + 2×21

a (4) = a (3) + 21 = (a (1) + 2×21) + 21 = a (1) + 3×21

and so on, with the general pattern

a (n) = a (1) + 21 (n - 1) = 21n - 20

Now, we're told that the sum of some number N of terms in this sequence is 2332. In other words, the N-th partial sum of the sequence is

a (1) + a (2) + a (3) + … + a (N - 1) + a (N) = 2332

or more compactly,

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^N a(n) = 2332$

It's important to note that N must be some positive integer.

Replace a (n) by the explicit rule:

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^N (21n-20) = 2332$

Expand the sum on the left as

$\displaystyle 21 \sum_{n=1}^N n-20\sum_{n=1}^N1 = 2332$

and recall the formulas,

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^n1=\underbrace{1+1+\cdots+1}_{n\text{ times}}=n$

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^nk=1+2+3+\cdots+n=\frac{n(n+1)}2$

So the sum of the first N terms of a (n) is such that

21 × N (N + 1)/2 - 20N = 2332

Solve for N :

21 (N ² + N) - 40N = 4664

21 N ² - 19 N - 4664 = 0

Now for the problem I mentioned at the start: this polynomial has no rational roots, and instead

N = (19 ± √392,137)/42 ≈ -14.45 or 15.36

so there is no positive integer N for which the first N terms of the sum add up to 2332.
