-18-(-12)=-6
Since there is two negative sign, it turns into positive meaning the -12 becomes positive 12 and the -18 stays same. So -18+12=-6 because 18 is bigger than 12 and it's negative so the final answer should be negative.
Hint: when you see two negative sign just turn them into plus sign.
Answer:
100
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the sum of first n terms of an AP,
Sn = n/2 [2a+(n−1)d]
Given,
36= 6/2 [2a+(6−1)d]
12=2a+5d ---------(1)
256= 16/2 [2a+(16−1)d]
32=2a+15d ---------(2)
Subtracting, (1) from (2)
32−12=2a+15d−(2a+5d)
20=10d ⟹d=2
Substituting for d in (1),
12=2a+5(2)=2(a+5)
6=a+5 ⟹a=1
∴ The sum of first 10 terms of an AP,
S10 = 10/2 [2(1)+(10−1)2]
S10 =5[2+18]
S10 =100
This is the sum of the first 10 terms.
Hope it will help.
The answer would be 16 because 40 divided by 5 is 8 and 8 times 2 is sixteen so it would be 16
I think one of the answers would be 9.82
Add it tighter and it will make ur number then subtract that
