Think of it this way: Lets add numbers in pairs, starting at the very outer 2 numbers (19 and 77) then go in by one and add the second number and the second to last (20 and 76), then (21 and 75) and so on. The sum of all of these pairs are all the same: 96. How many 96s will we have? Well since we're coming from each end toward the middle adding pairs we will have half the distance between 19 and 77, that is (77-19)/2 = 29. So we can actually just take 96*29 = 2784. This is the sum of all numbers between 19 and 77
Answer: third one
Step-by-step explanation: if you do the equation you will see the result and will be equivalents to numbers higher or exact to 0.
Answer:
-(x + 1)(7x - 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Factor out a -1
-1(7x² - 5x - 12)
Step 2:
Think. Answer this question: "What 2 numbers multiply up to -12 and adds up to -5 while 7 is an x coefficient?". You answer should be -12 and 1.
So, <em>factor</em>.
-1(x + 1)(7x - 12)
To double check, just expand/FOIL everything and see if it is the same as the original expression.
If Jayden needs 900, and he already has 375, first you need to find out how much more money he needs. Do that first.
2. His job pays him 155 a week, so 155w. If he needs to make at least 900, that means that it would be ok if he earned equal to 900, or more. So the amount he earns is greater than or equal to 900.
3. Solve for w. This should give you your answer.
I hope this helps!
