Answer:

325

Step-by-step explanation:

You must have heard about Arithmetic Progressions (AP)

Arithmetic progressions are a series of numbers such that every successive number is the sum of a constant number and the previous number.

Our very own counting numbers form AP

For example :-

2 = 1 + <u>1</u>

3 = 2 + <u>1</u>

4 = 3 + <u>1</u>

The number in bold (1) is that constant number which is added to a number to form its successive number.

To find the sum of series forming AP, we use the formula :-

sum =  \frac{n}{2} \{ a  + a  _{n}  \}

here,

  • n is the number of terms
  • a is the first number of the series
  • an is the last number of the series

So we'll use all this information to find the sum of continuous numbers from 1 to 25 where 1 is the first term(a) and 25 is the last(an).

and n is 25

S  =   \frac{25}{2}\{ 1  +25\}

=  \frac{25 \times 26}{2}

= 25  \times 13

= 325

So, the value of S comes out to be 325.

A new energy drink advertises 120 calories for 5 oz. How many calories are in 15 oz of drink
Alex777 [14]

A new energy drink advertises 120 calories for 5 oz.

How many calories are in 15 oz?

We can set up a proportion to solve this problem

\frac{120}{5}=\frac{x}{15}

Where x is the number of calories in 15 oz

Let us solve the above equation for x

\begin{gathered} \frac{120}{5}=\frac{x}{15} \\ \frac{x}{15}=\frac{120}{5} \\ x=\frac{120}{5}\cdot15 \\ x=120\cdot3 \\ x=360 \end{gathered}

Therefore, there are 360 calories in 15 oz of drink.

3 sixteens = 16 + 16 + 16 and  2 nines = 9 + 9 so that would be:

16 + 16 + 16 + 9 + 9 = 66
so 66 is your final answer. Hope that helps :D

Answer:

a_{n} = 10.5 - 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

A recursive formula has the form

a_{n} = a_{n-1} + d ( where d is the common difference )

Given

a_{n} = a_{n-1} - 3 ⇒ d = - 3

Thus explicit rule with a₁ = 7.5 and d = - 3

a_{n} = 7.5 - 3(n - 1) = 7.5 - 3n + 3 = 10.5 - 3n
