Legend has it that the great mathematician carl friedrich gauss ​(1777dash–​1855) at a very young age was told by his teacher to

find the sum of the first 100 counting numbers. while his classmates toiled at the​ problem, carl simply wrote down a single number and handed the correct answer in to his teacher. the young carl explained that he observed that there were 50 pairs of numbers that each added up to 101. so the sum of all the numbers must be 50 times •101equals=5050. modify the procedure of gauss to find the sum. 1plus+2plus+3plus+...plus+320

Answer: Sum is  51360

Step-by-step explanation: I have heard same legend and it is also told in hih school math books.

There are 160 pairs numbers which sum is 321, also (320 +1) + (319+2) + ... + (160 + 161).    So sum is  160·321

x+5+x+−5=56

(x+x)+(5+−5)=56(Combine Like Terms)

2x=56

2x=56

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

Answer:

  • minimum: -9
  • maximum: -6

Step-by-step explanation:

For a point to be a relative extreme, there must be points on both sides that are not as extreme. That is, the ends of the interval may be extreme values, but do not qualify as <em>relative</em> extrema, since there are not points on <em>both sides</em>.

In the interval [-3, 3], the relative extrema are the turning points.

The relative minimum is at y = -9 on the y-axis.

The relative maxima are at y = -6, between 1 and 2 on either side of the y-axis.
