A fraction is just the easier, cleaner way of writing a division problem
the numerator is the number you are dividing
the denominator is the number you are dividing with
EX- 2 divided by 3 as a fraction is
2/3
For sake of convenience, reverse the series, then it would be:
21,19,17.....7
a=21, d = -2,
s(4) = 4/2 (21+15)
s(4)=2(36)
s(4) = 72
Answer:
Multiply the first bracket by 3
Multiply the second bracket by -2
3x+3=-2x+2-4
3x+2x+3=-2x-2 negative (-) number and positive number (+)= negative number
Just rearranging
5x+3=-2
5x+3-3=-2-3
5x=-5
Dividing by 5
5x/5=-5/5
x=-1
Check answer by using substitution method
3(-1+1)=-2(-1-1)-4
0=-2(-2)-4 negative number and negative number = positive number
0=4-4
0=0
Answer is x=-1
