Answer:
-499,485.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can transform this to an arithmetic series by working it out in pairs:
6^2 - 7^2 = (6-7)(6+7) = -13
8^2 - 9^2 = (8-9)*8+9) = -17
10^2 - 11^2 = -1 * 21 = -21 and so on
The common difference is -4.
The number of terms in this series is (998 - 6) / 2 + 1
= 992/2 + 1 = 497.
Sum of n terms of an A.S:
= n/2 [2a1 + (n - 1)d
Here a1 = -13, n = 497, d = -4:
Sum = (497/2)[-26 - 4(497-1)]
= 497/2 * -2010
= -499,485.
Answer:
A. 18 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to rearrange the sum to make it easier to compute:
7 3/4 + 4 3/4 + 6 1/4 = (7 3/4) +(4 +6) +(3/4 +1/4)
= 7 3/4 + 10 + 1
= 18 3/4
