b=16 , First you multiply 30 by 2 to see what sum you need for the numerator. Then you subtract the 60 that you get by the 12 and get 48. So 3 multiplied by b should give you 48. So you just divide 48 by 3 and get 16.
5+ 3 Well a times it would probably be 40
Answer:
pretty good tired of the virus stuff but good
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Hint </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
- Break the given sequence into two parts .
- Notice the terms at gap of one term beginning from the first term .They are like
. Next term is obtained by multiplying half to the previous term . - Notice the terms beginning from 2nd term ,
. Next term is obtained by adding 3 to the previous term .
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
We need to find out the sum of 50 terms of the given sequence . After splitting the given sequence ,
.
We can see that this is in <u>Geometric</u><u> </u><u>Progression </u> where 1/2 is the common ratio . Calculating the sum of 25 terms , we have ,
Notice the term
will be too small , so we can neglect it and take its approximation as 0 .

Now the second sequence is in Arithmetic Progression , with common difference = 3 .
![\implies S_2=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%20S_2%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2a%20%2B%20%28n-1%29d%5D%20)
Substitute ,
![\implies S_2=\dfrac{25}{2}[2(4) + (25-1)3] =\boxed{ 908}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%20S_2%3D%5Cdfrac%7B25%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%284%29%20%2B%20%2825-1%293%5D%20%3D%5Cboxed%7B%20908%7D%20)
Hence sum = 908 + 1 = 909
To find the slope between the points, you would go through this process
(-1-6)/(4-0)
And we get
(-7)/4
Aka
-(7/4) which is our slope
