So D would be going up because it is positive. It is going up 10ft, once again cause the integer is a positive 10. Now E will be going down because it is a negative. Therefore it will go down 15ft for the reason being the integer is negative 15. Hope this helps.

What is the sum of a 6-term geometric series if the first term is 21 and the last term is 1,240,029?
igor_vitrenko [27]
21 times x to the fifth (where x is the ratio between values) equals 1240029
1240029/21=59049
59049^(1/5)=9
so the values are 21, 21*9, 21*9^2, 21*9^3, 21*9^4, 1240029
the sum of these values is 1395030

Alona [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Heavy Metal "music" impacts negatively the long term memory, if at least the ability to access it.

while harmonic music has no blocking effect or maybe even strengthens the long term memory and the ability to access it.

here 3 remarks.

first 2 scientifically from psychology : memory works mostly associative. that means brains do not store absolute information like a digital computer, but always in combination and association with other pieces of information. if there is nothing else to remember (like a more or less random pattern of sound effects for that the brain cannot find a rule or concept for), there are no associations with presented pieces of information, and the storage and access to it is much harder and restricted.

and - loud crashing and seemingly random noise triggers the panic mode in our brains. and panic is the mode favoring pure instinct and suppressing cognitive functions.

and finally, personally, it just confirms what I literally feel when listening to such music : it destroys at that moment any ability to keep a straight thought, prolonged exposure gives me the feeling that something gets broken inside my brain and thought processes.

I suspect that this is exactly the feeling that the fans of this kind of music are after (kind of like most drugs), but I am not surprised that there actually is something broken in the brain (again, as with drugs).

If it’s referring to 137 out of 1700, divide 137 by 1700 and multiply by 100. same for the other, except you divide 137 by 390.
