You can put this solution on YOUR website!
check for the formulas in your book; but t is for term and s is for a summation. You have arithmetic sequence and series. This help is for your part (a).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "t1+(n-1)d=tn, excuse the poor subscripting; and you have t1+(3-1)d=6.5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next facts give you s=(n/2)(t1+tn) but I really should show this to you better as
\n" ); document.write( "\"s%5B8%5D=%288%2F2%29%28t%5B1%5D%2Bt%5B8%5D%29\", and you were given the value of the summation,
\n" ); document.write( "\"s%5B8%5D=%288%2F2%29%28t%5B1%5D%2Bt%5B8%5D%29=67\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You will have two equations in the two unknowns \"t%5B1%5D\" and d.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
