This is a geometric sequence, so use the formula for the sum of a geometric sequence:
Sum = (a(r^n - 1))/(r - 1)
where a is the first term, -5
r is the common ratio, 5
and n is the number of terms
Thus,
Sum = ((-5)(5^6 - 1))/(5-1) = -19530
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given
x² + 5x + 6
Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
The factors are 3 and 2, since
3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5, hence
x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ← in factored form
(b)
To solve
x² + 5x + 6 = 0 ← use the factored form, that is
(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

The probability that Jane opens a prime page in a 24-page magazine is 0.375. There are 9 prime numbers between 1-24 and they are: 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19, and 23. To calculate, Probability = Events/Number of Outcomes which is 9/24 = 0.375. Hope this helps.
