Answer:a=first term

d=common difference

here,a=85,d=-7

tn=a+(n-1)d

tn=85+(n-1)-7

tn=85+(7n+7)

92-7n=0

7n=92

n=92/7

n=13.14

n=13

Sn=(n/2)(2a+(n-1)d)

sn=13/2(2*85+(13-1)(-7)

sn=(170+(12*-7)

sn=170-84

sn=13/2*86

sn=559

Step-by-step explanation:looks like it is 7 minus previous number. So, unfortunately 7 does not divide into 85 nicely. 7*12 = 84. So, how every many numbers there are — does it stop at positive numbers only? If not, then it is negative infinity… .

85+78+71+64+57+50+43+36+29+22+15+8+1 = 559

p.s. I tried to be clever with summations (there are 13 numbers) and ran into trouble. Probably the ‘1’ at the end or the 85 at the beginning ... … 7*(summation of 1 to 13) plus an offset to account for the not divisible by 12 exactly. Didn’t work, and it was easier to just do the subtractions and add them together.

This id hard please help me do this
svlad2 [7]
In this problem, we're going to use the 'PEMDAS' method.

First, we're doing the problem in the parenthesis.
44 - 4 = 40

Next in PEMDAS, we need to do the exponent.
6² = 6 x 6 = 36

Then we would do multiplication, but there is nothing to multiply so we move onto division.
40 / 2 = 20

Now we would add, but there is nothing to add so we move onto subtraction.
20 - 36 = -16

Our final answer would be -16.

Hope this helps!~

A projectile is launched upward from ground level with an intentional speed of 98 m/s. How high will it go? when will it return
viktelen [127]
Let h(t) represent the height of the projectile after t seconds. If the projectile is being launched from the ground, then h(0)=0, and h(t)=-4.9t²+98t.  When the equation is in this form, the maximum height is determined by -98/2(-4.9), or after 10 seconds. Thus
-4.9(100)+98(10)=490 m as the highest point of the projectile
Then, when it hits the ground, h(t)=0, so
0=-4.9t²+98t
98t=4.9t²
4.9t=98
t=20

Please help I really need to pass this exam<br> If line GF is a midsegment of triangle CDE, find CD.
olga55 [171]
CF = FG = GC because it is equilateral triangle

So
3x + 0.8 = 2x + 3

3x–2x = 3 – 0.8

X = 2.2

Putting this value to DE

IT IS ALSO A EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE

SO
5x + 4 = 5× 2.2 +4 =

11+4 = 15

All side will be 15 of triangle CD = DC = CE = 15
