2 1/2 yds = 2.5 x 36 = 90 inches...what she started with

2 ft 8 in = 2(12) + 8 = 32 inches...what she had left

90 - x = 32
90 - 32 = x
x = 58 inches....so she used 58 inches

If a person puts 1 cent in a piggy bank on the first day, 2 cents on the second day, 3 cents on the third day, and so forth, how

cluponka [151]

This is an arithmetic sequence with the common difference being 1

and if u have 1 cent on day 1 and 2 cents on day 2....then on day 40, u would have 40 cents....but we need the sum of all the days..

the sum of an arithmetic sequence can be found using the formula :
sn = n(a1 + an) / 2
n = number of terms = 40
a1 = first term = 1
an = last term = 40

now we sub
s(40) = 40(1 + 40) / 2
s(40) = 40(41)/2
s(40) = 1640/2
s(40) = 820.....820 cents = $ 8.20 <== the sum
