Answer:
you ended up having = 1/n^3[1^2+2^2+3^2...(n-1)^2]
hope this helps :')
 
        
             
        
        
        
<span>So, the volume of a container can also be thought of as the amount of liquid that the container is capable of holding. It follows that 450=(length)(width)(height). The constraints of the problem say that the length of the box must be twice as large as the width, so it follows that j(height)=(2w)(w)(height)-450. This then implies that j(height)=(2w^2)(height)-450. In simpler terms, the height is defined as 450/(2w^2), or j(w)=450/(2w^2).</span>
        
             
        
        
        
The answer to Q1 along with an explanation is shown in the picture;
Having a look at all the questions, they are all essentially the same type so can all be solved similarly;
So by following the method and explanation, you should be able to do the rest of the questions.
 
        
        
        
Answer:
k = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the points are collinear then the slopes between consecutive points are equal.
Using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 1)
m =  =
 =  =
 = 
Repeat with another 2 points and equate to 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (k, 4)
m =  , then
 , then
 =
 =  ( cross- multiply )
 ( cross- multiply )
k - 1 = 10 ( add 1 to both sides )
k = 11
