Answer:
Lucy needs to invest $55,194.16
Step-by-step explanation:
I got a hold on hood for the
First we find the common difference...to do this we subtract the first term from the second term. -7 - (-1) = -7 + 1 = -6
now we are going to find the 10th term
an = a1 + (n-1)*d <== formula for finding any term in arithmetic series
a1 = 1st term, d = common difference, n = term we want to find
now we sub
a10 = -1 + (10 -1) * -6
a10 = -1 + (9 * -6)
a10 = -1 - 54
a10 = - 55
now we will find the sum
Sn = (n (a1+ an)) / 2 <== formula for finding the sum
S10 = (10(-1 - 55))/2
S10 = (10(-56) / 2
S10 = -560/2
S10 = - 280
so the sum of the first 10 numbers is -280
Answer: x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract both sides by 3
X+3-3 = -4 - 3
X+0 = -7
X=-7
