Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the sum of the first 42 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer.
2,7,12
Solution
The sum is given by
SUM_n=n/2*(a_1+a_n)
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d
a_1=2, n=42, d=5
The 42nd term is therefore given by
a_42=2+(42-1)5=207
SUM_42=42/2*(2+207)=21*209=4389
The sum of the first 42 terms of the series, therefore, is 4389
yes
As an example
(x₁, y₁ ) = (1,2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5,3), then
d = = = =
Now let (x₁, y₁ ) = (5,3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1,2), then
=g-1(4)
x=3y+8 ---> y=
y=
