Algebra.Com's Answer #495861 by Edwin McCravy(20062) You can put this solution on YOUR website! \r\n" ); document.write( "That is solved for sum = 1620, not 1720 here:\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "http://www.algebra.com/cgi-bin/jump-to-question.mpl?question=495769\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "There is no solution for 1720. That is a typo, the 1720 must be 1620.\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "If you try to use 1720, the answer comes out with n as a fraction\r\n" ); document.write( "and the number of terms cannot be a fraction.\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "Edwin\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
