Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x−5) = 9 (by PEDMAS, distribute 3 into parentheses by distributive property)
x(3)−5(3) = 9
3x - 15 = 9 (add 15 to both sides)
3x = 9 + 15
3x = 24 (divide both sides by 3)
x = 24/3
x = 8
An = a1 + (n-1)*d
n = term to find = 30
a1 = first term = 20
d = common difference = 2
a30 = 20 + (30 - 1) * 2
a30 = 20 + 29 * 2
a30 = 20 + 58
a30 = 78
sn = (n (a1 + a30)) / 2
s30 = (30(20 + 78) / 2
s30 = (30(98) / 2
s30 = 2940/2
s30 = 1470 <===
