1. 27 - 3 (because 3 are left over) = 24. Then, 24 ÷ 6 = 4 children.
2. If Mina has £7.20, that means she has 720 pence. If half is given to her brother, then she has £3.60 left. (720 ÷ 2 = 360 pence, which is £3.60)
3. 17 × 10 = 170
2 × 20 = 40
170 + 40 = 210, which is £2.10
Answer: the answer is 30 kg
explanation: I did the the test
Answer:
Sum of the first 15 terms = -405
Step-by-step explanation:
a + 3d = -15 (1)
a + 8d = -30 (2)
Where,
a = first term
d = common difference
n = number of terms
Subtract (1) from (1)
8d - 3d = -30 - (-15)
5d = -30 + 15
5d = -15
d = -15/5
= -3
d = -3
Substitute d = -3 into (1)
a + 3d = -15
a + 3(-3) = -15
a - 9 = -15
a = -15 + 9
a = -6
Sum of the first 15 terms
S = n/2[2a + (n − 1) × d]
= 15/2 {2×-6 + (15-1)-3}
= 7.5{-12 + (14)-3}
= 7.5{ -12 - 42}
= 7.5{-54}
= -405
Sum of the first 15 terms = -405
