The sum of the first n consecutive even numbers can be found using S = n2 + n, where n > 2. What is the value of n when the s

um is 30?
Mathematics

The value of n when the sum is 30 is equal to 5.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Sum, S = 30

To determine the value of n when the sum is 30:

<h3>How to calculate the sequence of numbers.</h3>

Mathematically, the sum of the first n consecutive even numbers is given by this formula:

S=n^2+n

<u>Where:</u>

  • S is the sum.
  • n is the consecutive even numbers.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

30=n^2+n\\\\n^2+n-30=0\\\\n^2 +6n-5n-30=0\\\\n(n+6)-5(n+6)=0\\\\(n+6)(n-5)=0

n = -6 or 5.

Since, n > 2;

n = 5.

dimulka [17.4K]
35% = 0.35
500 x 0.35 = 175
500 + 175 = 675 per month
675 x (12 x 3) = $24,300 sales over three years (I’m not sure what answer is wanted for this question)

Give the expression 4n^2t/2n^t-1, write the expression as a binomial.
lubasha [3.4K]

 <span>binomial </span>is an algebraic expression containing 2 terms. For example, (x + y) is a binomial.

We sometimes need to expand binomials as follows:

(a + b)0 = 1

(a + b)1 = a + b

(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2

(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3

<span>(a + b)4</span> <span>= a4 + 4a3b</span><span> + 6a2b2 + 4ab3 + b4</span>

<span>(a + b)5</span> <span>= a5 + 5a4b</span> <span>+ 10a3b2</span><span> + 10a2b3 + 5ab4 + b5</span>

Clearly, doing this by direct multiplication gets quite tedious and can be rather difficult for larger powers or more complicated expressions.

Pascal's Triangle

We note that the coefficients (the numbers in front of each term) follow a pattern. [This was noticed long before Pascal, by the Chinese.]

1

1 1

1 2 1

1 3 3 1

1 4 6 4 1

1 5 10 10 5 1

1 6 15 20 15 6 1

You can use this pattern to form the coefficients, rather than multiply everything out as we did above.

The Binomial Theorem

We use the binomial theorem to help us expand binomials to any given power without direct multiplication. As we have seen, multiplication can be time-consuming or even not possible in some cases.

<span>Properties of the Binomial Expansion <span>(a + b)n</span></span><span><span>There are <span>\displaystyle{n}+{1}<span>n+1</span></span> terms.</span><span>The first term is <span>an</span> and the final term is <span>bn</span>.</span></span><span>Progressing from the first term to the last, the exponent of a decreases by <span>\displaystyle{1}1</span> from term to term while the exponent of b increases by <span>\displaystyle{1}1</span>. In addition, the sum of the exponents of a and b in each term is n.</span><span>If the coefficient of each term is multiplied by the exponent of a in that term, and the product is divided by the number of that term, we obtain the coefficient of the next term.</span>

2.In ABC, BD is perpendicular to AC. The dimensions are shown in centimeters.
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

AC = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have that BD is perpendicular to AC

This means that it is at 90 degrees to the base

so we have two similar right triangles

Let us use Pythagoras’ theorem to get the measure of one of the legs (AD and DC)

Let us call the leg x

We have the Pythagoras’ theorem stating that the square of the hypotenuse (the side facing the right angle; 10 here) is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides

10^2 = x^2 + 8^2

100 = x^2 + 64

x^2 = 100-64

x^2 = 36

x = √36

x = 6

AD = DC = 6

AC = 2 * AD

AC = 2 * 6

AC = 12
