Subtract 5x from both sides
0=-30x
Divide both sides by -30
0=x
Final answer: x=0
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Ok, first in our series we can see two numbers in the Sigma, one bellow 0, and other above, 4.
This means that the value of k will go from 0 to 4, then all the numbers in the sum are:
(-1/2)^0 + (-1/2)^1 + (-1/2)^2 + (-1/2)^3 + (-1/2)^4
So we have 5 terms in our series.
b) to see the sign in each term, we must solve the powers, remember that:
(-1)^n is -1 if n is odd, and is equal to 1 if n is even, so we have:
(-1/2)^0 + (-1/2)^1 + (-1/2)^2 + (-1/2)^3 + (-1/2)^4
= 1 -1/2 + 1/4 - 1/8 + 1/16.
So the sign in each term of the series alternates.
98cm^2 - bigger triangles are 28 each, bottom one is 14. (28 x 3) + 14=98
