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.

Determine the exact solution to the following in radians.
Sloan [31]
3sinx+1=sinx
2sinx+1=0
2sinx=-1
sinx=-1/2
x=sin^-1 (1/2) = 30 = \pi/6 (when finding the inverse, always take the positive value, ignore the negative sign)
x is therefore negative in 3rd and 4th quadrant
Therefore values of x are:
180+30=210 = 7\pi/6
360-3=330 = 11\pi/6

RESUELVE EL SIGUINTE PORBLEMA En la escuela "Soy Feliz porque soy diverso", hay 230 estudiantes en total. De estos, 35 son mujer
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

1) a. 195 are males

b. Males are the 85 %

2) 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of all the students: 230

35 are females

x are males

Then 35 + x = 230

x = 230 - 35 → 195

To determine the amount of males, from the total we apply the percent.

Percent = (Amount of males / Total of students) . 100

% = (195 / 230) . 100 = 85 %

2. In first place, Maria spent 13 for the book.

In second place, Maria spent 29 for the pencil box.

In total, she has spent 13+29 = 42

But, how many dolars have the grandpa gave to her?.

We can also apply percent and fractions, where:

(Book / Total) + (Pencil box/Total) + (What she did not spend/Total) = 1

13 + 29 + x = T

13/T + 29/T + x/T = 1, in conclussion x = 42

Total of money given = 84

Then, Maria has not spent the half of money→ 1/2

brainliest plzzzzz

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2) - 3(x-4)

Simplify:

2(x-2)-3(x-4)

2x-4-3(x-4)

Distribute:

2x-4-3(x-4)

2x-4-3x+12

Add the numbers:

2x-4-3x+12

2x+8-3x

Combine like terms:

2x+8-3x

-x+8

Hence Solution = -x+8
