So
a be first term and d be common difference
- a+a+2d+a+4d+a+6d+a+9d=17
- 5a+21d=17--(1)
And
- a+d+a+3d+a+5d+a+7d+a+9d=15
- 5a+25d=15--(2)
Eq(1)-Eq(2)
Put in second one
- 5a+25d=15
- a+5d=3
- a+5/2=15
- a=15-5/2
- a=25/2
Answer:
B. Step 2 uses the associative property, and step 3 uses the commutative property.
Step-by-step explanation:
The associative property lets you group terms for addition any way you like. It appears that in Step 2, the grouping is ...
4 + (1/6 + 3) + 5/6
The commutative property lets you change the order of any pair of terms involved in addition. It appears that in Step 3, the order of the terms within the group has been swapped.
4 + (3 + 1/6) + 5/6

Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the figure is a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. That means ...
3x -11 = x +5
2x = 16 . . . . . . . add 11-x to both sides
x = 8 . . . . . . divide by 2
