r u there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plz give me medal if i helped

OpenStudy (anonymous):

soryry i didnt see ur response

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u mean u did'nt understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the correct answer is \[\sum_{14}^{3k+3}\] i just dont know how they got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i mean 14 is on the top, and k=1 is on the bottome and to the right is 3k+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok now wait that's same as what i have said let me tell u now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

14 is total number of terms between 6 and 45 ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sum_{k=1}^{14}3k+3\] that would be the correct answer , why 14?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u would have \[\sum_{1}^{14}(3k+3) \] for k =1 6 for k=2 9 for k=3 12 . . . . for k=14 45 \[\sum_{a}^{b}\] this sign indicates there is plus sign between theses terms so the serries is same 6+9+12............+45

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's easier to right the whole serries in sigma notation then writing it like a1+a2+.....+an

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):
