What is the sum of the first 20 terms of the series 3 + 14 + 25 + 25 + 36 +
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

S _{20} = 2150

Step-by-step explanation:

a _{1} = 3 \\ a _{2} = 14 \\ d = a _{2} - a_{1}  = 14 - 3 = 11 \\ n = 20

S _{n} =  \frac{n}{2} (2a + (n - 1)d) \\  \\ S _{20} =  \frac{20}{2} (2(3) + (20 - 1) \times 11) \\  \\ S _{20} = 10 \times (6 + 19 \times 11) \\ S _{20} = 10 \times (6 + 209) \\ S _{20} = 10 \times 215 \\ S _{20} = 2150

1. Solve the system of equations using the linear combination method.
goldfiish [28.3K]
The linear combination method involves multiplying, adding and subtracting in such a way that allows one variable to be eliminated in the addition or subtraction step. This leaves the other variable alone, allowing its value to be determined.

1. <span>5m+3n=41, 3m−6n=9
Multiply 1st equation by 2: 10m + 6n = 82
Add to 2nd equation: 13m = 91
Divide by 13: m = 7
Substitute back to 1st equation: n = 2
Therefore m = 7 and n = 2.

2. </span><span>6g+8h=40 −6g+2h=−20
Add both equations: 10h = 20
Divide by 10: h = 2
Substitute to 1st equation: g = 4
Therefore g = 4 and h = 2.

3. </span><span>9x+5y=35 2x+5y=0
Subtract 1st equation by the 2nd equation: 7x = 35
Divide by 7: x = 5
Substitute back to the 1st equation: y = -2
Therefore x = 5 and y = -2.
