2x2 + 5xy - 3y
there are three terms in the simplified expression
there is one negative term in the simplified expression
Step-by-step explanation:
sum of the arithmetic sequence
a1 = 8
a2 = a1 + 8 = 8+8 = 16
...
an = 8×n
the sum of the first n elements of such a series is
n/2 × (2×a1 + (n - 1)×d]
with d being the difference between 2 consecutive elements (= the added constant).
so,
s30 = 30/2 × (2×8 + 29×8) = 15×(31×8) = 3720
Answer: $12
Step-by-step explanation: 16 - 4 = 12
