Gauss's approach is to add the same sequence in reverse order, namely

S=1+3+5+7+......+95+97+99
S=99+97+95+......+7+5+3+1
---------------------------------------
2S=(1+99)+(3+97)+(5+95)+......(95+5)+(97+3)+(99+1)=50*100=5000
=> sum = (2S)/2 = 5000/2=2500.

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x – 10
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

y = 1/2x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

change f(x) to y

y = 2x - 10

then switch x and y

x = 2y - 10

then solve for y

add 10 to both sides and divide both sides by 2
