Answer: To determine Rocco´s weight jake must use this expression

  • p = 55 - 0.5 w

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi to solve this problem we have to analyze the information given:

  • Rocco´s initial weight: 55 pounds
  • Pounds lost per week: 0.5 pounds  

So, we have to write an equation where p is Rocco's weight after w weeks.

Each week Rocco will lose 0.5 pounds so the expression is 0.5w, where w is the number of weeks.

Mathematically speaking:

  • p = 55 - 0.5 w

By replacing w by the number of weeks, Jake will obtain Rocco´s weight.

For example, if the number of weeks is 20:

p= 55-0.5x 10

p= 55 - 20

p= 35

After 20 weeks Rocco will lose 10 pounds.

Find the sum <br>6+9+12+...+93<br><br>Sn=
Burka [1]
We notice that:
9-6 = 3
12-9 = 3 , Then we can conclude that this is an arithmetic progression with:
1st term a₁ = 6 and with common difference d = 3

So the first term is 6 and the last term is 93.
the formula of the sum in a A.P is :

S = (a + last term).n/2, n being the rank of the last term. So to be
able to find S, we have to calculate the value of n

We know that the last value of a A.P is :
last value = a₁ + (n-1)d
93 = 6 +(n-1)(3) → 93 = 6 + 3n -3 → n = 90/3 → n = 30 (rank 30th)

Now we can find the sum:
S = (a₁ + last term)n/2

S = (6+93)30/2

S = (99).15 = 1,485
