// I AM NOT SURE, IF SOMEONE SEES THIS AND ITS WRONG CORRECT ME DIRECTLY.
hmm.. never heard of properties but take a look at this :D
Answer:
Option 2.. x > -6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x -5x - 2 > 5x -5x + 10
-2x - 2 + 2 > 10 + 2
-2x/-2 > 12/-2
<u>x > -6</u>
Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
first it goes up by 10 then 5 now 10
Answer: 912
===================================
Work Shown:
The starting term is a1 = 3. The common difference is d = 5 (since we add 5 to each term to get the next term). The nth term formula is
an = a1+d(n-1)
an = 3+5(n-1)
an = 3+5n-5
an = 5n-2
Plug n = 19 into the formula to find the 19th term
an = 5n-2
a19 = 5*19-2
a19 = 95-2
a19 = 93
Add the first and nineteenth terms (a1 = 3 and a19 = 93) to get a1+a19 = 3+93 = 96
Multiply this by n/2 = 19/2 = 9.5 to get the final answer
96*9.5 = 912
I used the formula
Sn = (n/2)*(a1 + an)
where you add the first term (a1) to the nth term (an), then multiply by n/2
-----------------
As a check, here are the 19 terms listed out and added up. We get 912 like expected.
3+8+13+18 +23+28+33+38 +43+48+53+58 +63+68+73+78 +83+88+93 = 912
There are 19 values being added up in that equation above. I used spaces to help group the values (groups of four; except the last group which is 3 values) so it's a bit more readable.
