It is asking you to find the sum of k^2 - 1 from k=1 to k=4. Since that is only 4 numbers, calculating the sum by hand wouldn’t be that bad.
(1^2 - 1) + (2^2 - 1) + (3^2 - 1) + (4^2 - 1) = 26
The easier way to find the sum is to use a few simple formulas.
When we have a term that is just a constant c, the formula is c*n.
When we have a variable k, the formula is k*n*(n+1)/2.
When we have a squared variable, the formula is k*n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/6.
In this case, we have a squared variable k^2 and a constant of -1.
So plug in n=4 to the formulas:
4*5*9/6 - 1*4 = 26
The answer is 26
Answer:
1) 2a+4a+10-6= 6a + 4
2) 3x-5x+7-7= -2x
3) - 15b+10 +10b= -5b + 10
4) - 4d+d-8-6+3b= - 3d - 14 +3b
Answer:
You have to have the graph to answer it.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C. It would be shifted up.
Step-by-step explanation:
We base it off the y-intercept. Since -7 is <em>less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>1, and our new function has a positive y-intercept, it would indeed be shifted up.
