Here's a pattern to consider:
1+100=101
2+99=101
3+98=101
4+97=101
5+96=101
.....
This question relates to the discovery of Gauss, a mathematician. He found out that if you split 100 from 1-50 and 51-100, you could add them from each end to get a sum of 101. As there are 50 sets of addition, then the total is 50×101=5050
So, the sum of the first 100 positive integers is 5050.
Quick note
We can use a formula to find out the sum of an arithmetic series:

Where s is the sum of the series and n is the number of terms in the series. It works for the above problem.

Answer: Choice B</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
The rule we use is
![\Large a^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{a^m} = \left(\sqrt[n]{a}\right)^m](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CLarge%20a%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Ba%5Em%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Ba%7D%5Cright%29%5Em)
where 'a' is the base, m stays in the role of the exponent, and n plays the role of the root index (eg: n = 3 is a cube root, n = 4 is a fourth root, and so on).
So for instance,
![\Large 2^{3/4} = \sqrt[4]{2^3} = \left(\sqrt[4]{2}\right)^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CLarge%202%5E%7B3%2F4%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B2%5E3%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B2%7D%5Cright%29%5E3)
or in this case,
![\Large t^{5/8} = \sqrt[8]{t^5} = \left(\sqrt[8]{t}\right)^5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CLarge%20t%5E%7B5%2F8%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B8%5D%7Bt%5E5%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28%5Csqrt%5B8%5D%7Bt%7D%5Cright%29%5E5)

Answer:
Michaela gets 3.45$ back.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 carton of eggs = 1.58$
she buys 2, so 2 times 1.58= 3.16$
1 pound of turkey = 6.99$
she buys 4.15 pounds, so 4.15 times 6.99= 29.01$
she buys a jar of jam for 4.38$
4.38 + 3.16 + 29.01 = 36.55$
4 times 10= 40
40 - 36.55 = 3.45$
