M= (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
Plug the points in.
-9-6/1-1
-15/0 or -15. The slope of the line is -15.
I hope this helped you!
Brainliest answer would be greatly appreciated!
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x 7= 14 - 17= 3
First term ,a=4 , common difference =4-7=-3, n =50
sum of first 50terms= (50/2)[2×4+(50-1)(-3)]
=25×[8+49]×-3
=25×57×-3
=25× -171
= -42925
derivation of the formula for the sum of n terms
Progression, S
S=a1+a2+a3+a4+...+an
S=a1+(a1+d)+(a1+2d)+(a1+3d)+...+[a1+(n−1)d] → Equation (1)
S=an+an−1+an−2+an−3+...+a1
S=an+(an−d)+(an−2d)+(an−3d)+...+[an−(n−1)d] → Equation (2)
Add Equations (1) and (2)
2S=(a1+an)+(a1+an)+(a1+an)+(a1+an)+...+(a1+an)
2S=n(a1+an)
S=n/2(a1+an)
Substitute an = a1 + (n - 1)d to the above equation, we have
S=n/2{a1+[a1+(n−1)d]}
S=n/2[2a1+(n−1)d]
A. 36 as the numbers are adding by the next odd integer. An example is: 1–>4 is +3, 4–>9 is +5, 9–>16 is +7, and so on. This rule applies to both of our sequences.
b. 38.
Hope this helps :) brainly if possible so others can see.
