Answer:

4.875 = s

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5=12s-55

Add 55 to each side

3.5+55=12s-55+55

58.5 = 12s

Divide each side by 12

58.5/12 = 12s/12

4.875 = s

Answer:

s = 4.875

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

3.5 = 12s - 55

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>s</u></em>

  1. Add 55 to both sides:                    58.5 = 12s
  2. Divide 12 on both sides:                4.875 = s
  3. Rewrite:                                           s = 4.875

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in s into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>s</em>:                    3.5 = 12(4.875) - 55
  2. Multiply:                               3.5 = 58.5 - 55
  3. Subtract:                              3.5 = 3.5

Here we see that 3.5 does indeed equal 3.5.

∴ s = 4.875 is a solution of the equation.

50+51+52+...+101=...<br>Can you help me? I do not understand
Dmitriy789 [7]

Suppose

S=50+51+52+\cdots+100+101

At the same time, we can write

S^*=101+100+99+\cdots+51+50

Note that S=S^* (just reverse the sum). Let's pair the first terms of S and S^*, and the second, and the third, and so on:

S+S^*=(50+101)+(51+100)+(52+99)+\cdots+(100+51)+(101+50)

Now, each grouped term in the sum on the right side adds to 151. There are 52 grouped terms on that same side (because there are 50 numbers in the range of integers 51-100, plus 50 and 101), which menas

S+S^*=52\cdot151

But S=S^*, as we pointed out, so

2S=52\cdot151\implies S=\dfrac{52\cdot151}2=3926
