The sum of the 8 terms of the series 1-1-3-5- ... -13 is -48
The given sequence is:
1,-1,-3, . . -13
and there are 8 terms.
The related series of this sequence is:
1-1-3-5- ... -13
Notice that the series is an arithmetic series with:
first term, a(1) = 1
common difference, d = -1 - (1) = -2
last term, a(8) = -13
To find the sum of the series, use the sum formula:
S(n) = n/2 [(a(1) + a(n)]
Substitute n = 8, a(1) = 1, a(n) = a(8) = -13 into the formula:
S(8) = 8/2 [1 + (-13)]
S(9) = 4 . (-12) = -48

I think you divide 24 by 8 which = 3 and then times 3•3 which equals 9 so I think that 9 students out of 24 ride the bus
Answer:
The probability is 0.683
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate this, we shall be needing to calculate the z-scores of both temperatures
mathematically;
z-score = (x-mean)/SD
From the question mean = 78 and SD = 5
For 73
z-score = (73-78)/5 = -5/5 = -1
For 83
z-score = (83-78)/5 = 5/5 = 1
So the probability we want to calculate is within the following range of z-scores;
P(-1 <z <1 )
Mathematically, this is same as ;
P(z<1) - P(z<-1)
Using the normal distribution table;
P(-1<z<1) = 0.68269 which is approximately 0.683
Answer:
one trillion
Step-by-step explanation:
-12 and 3 add up to -9 but multiply to 36.
