(n-1)+n+(n+1)
With n as the middle of 3 integers, n-1 is the integer just before n and n+1 is the integer just after n.

The expression for the sum of the three integers is 3n.

If n is the middle number of three consecutive numbers, then the number before n is (n - 1) and the number after n is (n +1). By adding the three terms, we get an expression for its sum: $(n-1) + n + (n + 1)$ . Simplifying the expression yields 3n. I hope this helps.

Answer:

1) True 2) False

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

To verify that the above equality is true or false:

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{0+3}+\frac{1}{1+3}+\frac{1}{2+3}+\frac{1}{3+3}+\frac{1}{4+3}+\frac{1}{5+3}+\frac{1}{6+3}+\frac{1}{7+3}+\frac{1}{8+3}$ $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$

Now find $\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$

Comparing the two series we get,

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$ so the given equality is true.

2) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Verify the above equality is true or false

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\frac{3(0)+3}{0+6}+\frac{3(1)+3}{1+6}+\frac{3(2)+3}{2+6}+\frac{3(3)+4}{3+6}+\frac{3(4)+3}{4+6}$

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{6}{7}+\frac{9}{8}+\frac{12}{8}+\frac{15}{10}$

now find $\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}=\frac{3(0)}{0+5}+\frac{3(1)}{1+5}+\frac{3(2)}{2+5}+\frac{3(3)}{3+5}$

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{6}{7}+\frac{9}{8}$

Comparing the series we get that the given equality is false.

ie, $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}\neq\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the g

Fiesta28 [93]

Parallel lines have equal slopes. so the equation y=-4x+5.has slope of -4 because this is in slope intercept form y=mx+b where m is slope.

so we know a parallel line will have slope -4

we have a point on the line so we will use point slope formula to solve.
y-y1=m(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is point on line
so we get
y-4=-4(x-0) to put in slope intercept form we solve for y
y-4=-4x
y=-4x+4 is an equation of a line parallel to y=-4+5 passing through (0,4)
