Answer: 912
===================================
Work Shown:
The starting term is a1 = 3. The common difference is d = 5 (since we add 5 to each term to get the next term). The nth term formula is
an = a1+d(n-1)
an = 3+5(n-1)
an = 3+5n-5
an = 5n-2
Plug n = 19 into the formula to find the 19th term
an = 5n-2
a19 = 5*19-2
a19 = 95-2
a19 = 93
Add the first and nineteenth terms (a1 = 3 and a19 = 93) to get a1+a19 = 3+93 = 96
Multiply this by n/2 = 19/2 = 9.5 to get the final answer
96*9.5 = 912
I used the formula
Sn = (n/2)*(a1 + an)
where you add the first term (a1) to the nth term (an), then multiply by n/2
-----------------
As a check, here are the 19 terms listed out and added up. We get 912 like expected.
3+8+13+18 +23+28+33+38 +43+48+53+58 +63+68+73+78 +83+88+93 = 912
There are 19 values being added up in that equation above. I used spaces to help group the values (groups of four; except the last group which is 3 values) so it's a bit more readable.
An <em>imaginary number</em>. The defining property of an imaginary number is that has the number i attached to it, where i² = -1.
A few examples of imaginary numbers: 3i, i, -7i, (√3)i, (1/2)i
Answer:
When it comes to investing, compound interest is better since it allows funds to grow at a faster rate than they would in an account with a simple interest rate.
Answer:
D) 12
Step-by-step explanation:
divide each term by -8 and simplify
-8/-8x=-96/-8
x=12
This is a 30-60-90 triangle.
Therefore,
7 is A
the other leg is A√3
And the hypotenuse is 2A
So the other leg is 7√3 and the hypotenuse is 14
