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.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

c = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 16 is over the variable c, first multiply both sides by c so the variable is not in the denominator of the fraction.

16/c(c) = 8(c)

16 = 8c           Next, divide both sides by 8 to solve for c.

c = 2

A home-made baseball diamond is in the shape of a square. The distance from base to base is 80 feet because of space constraints
Lelu [443]
Call x the distance from home plate to second base.

There is a right triangle formed by homeplate, first base and second base. The sides of this triangle are 80 feet and 80 feet. The hypothenuse meets Pythagoras theorem:

x^2 = 80^2 + 80^2 = 2(80)^2
x = 80√2

Then the answer is the option D.
