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.

Find the consecutive positive odd integers whose product is 99​
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

9 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's say that the first integer is x.

That means that the second integer is x+2, since it us the next odd number.

This problem can be easily solved with our mind the answer is 9 and 11, but I'll show you the steps to slove this.

We make an equation using these two numbers:

(x)*(x+2)=99\\

Now all we gotta do is solve for x:

x^2 +2x = 99\\x^2+2x-99=0

Now we use either splitting the middle term or quadratic formula:

x^2+11x-9x+99=0\\x(x+11)-9(x+11)=0\\(x+11)(x-9)=0

Now we split each terma and solve for x:

(x-9)=0\\x=9\\(x+11)=0\\x=-11

Now the question states <em>positive </em>so we can rule out x = -11.

Now we have the first integer x = 9,

the second integer is x+2 = 9+2 =11

So the two consecutive positive odd integers are 9 and 11

Need help. Solve for X
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

VS is a straight line so it equals 180 degrees

The arc with be 180 degrees

VR + RS = 180

45+ 6x+33 = 180

Combine like terms

78+ 6x = 180

Subtract 78 from each side

78+6x-78 = 180-78

6x = 102

Divide each side by 6

6x/6 = 102/6

x =17
