Answer:
<u>The sequence is</u>
- 1, 1 + 2, 1 + 2 + 3, 1 + 2 + 3 + 4, ...
Each term is the sum of the consecutive numbers from 1 to that number.
<u>The nth term is the sum of the first n numbers:</u>
- aₙ = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n
- aₙ = 1/2n(1 + n) (formula for sum of the n terms of arithmetic progression with the first term of 1 and common difference of 1)
- aₙ = n(n + 1)/2
1) The number of circles in the nth pile is n(n + 1)/2
2) When n tends to infinity the number of circles tends to infinity
I would say that statistics is a mathematical subject that allows you to explain scientific data. In a similar fashion, you could use mathematics to explain the various idea in physics as you can use statistics to interpret the results of experiments and the data collected.
Hope that helped!
Answer:
(60 - 4x)(50 + 2x) = 2,800
Step-by-step explanation:
80% = 6 in
100%=?
100/x 80/6 (proportional relationship)
then cross multiply
600 = 80x
600/80= 7.5
x=7.5
