Grant earns $5 for each magazine he sells.Write an equation in two variables showing the relationship between the number pf maga

slega [8]

Answer:

$A=5m$

Grant will make $60 from selling 12 magazines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent number of magazine sold and A represent amount of money earned.

We have been given that Grant earns $5 for each magazine he sells. So amount earned from m magazines would be 5 times m that is $5m$ dollars.

Now, we will equate total amount earned by Grant with A as:

$A=5m$

Therefore, our required equation would be $A=5m$ .

To find the amount earned by Grant by selling 12 magazines, we will substitute $m=12$ in our equation as:

$A=5(12)$

$A=60$

Therefore, Grant will make $60 from selling 12 magazines.

Prove by mathematical induction that 1+2+3+...+n= n(n+1)/2 please can someone help me with this ASAP. Thanks

Iteru [2.4K]

Let

$P(n):\ 1+2+\ldots+n = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}$

In order to prove this by induction, we first need to prove the base case, i.e. prove that P(1) is true:

$P(1):\ 1 = \dfrac{1\cdot 2}{2}=1$

So, the base case is ok. Now, we need to assume $P(n)$ and prove $P(n+1)$ .

$P(n+1)$ states that

$P(n+1):\ 1+2+\ldots+n+(n+1) = \dfrac{(n+1)(n+2)}{2}=\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}$

Since we're assuming $P(n)$ , we can substitute the sum of the first n terms with their expression:

$\underbrace{1+2+\ldots+n}_{P(n)}+n+1 = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}+n+1=\dfrac{n(n+1)+2n+2}{2}=\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}$

Which terminates the proof, since we showed that

$P(n+1):\ 1+2+\ldots+n+(n+1) =\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}$

as required
