1,1.4,1.8,....
This is in AP with first term 1 and common difference 0.4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Use sum formula of AP
OpenStudy (amoodarya):
14/2(a1+a14)=n/2(5.6+5.6+(n-1)*0.2)
OpenStudy (amoodarya):
14/2(1+1+13(.4))=n/2(5.6+5.6+(n-1)*0.2)

5.6,5.8,6.0,....
This is in AP with common difference 0.2 andfirt term 5.6

Sn=50.4
n/2 { 2*5.6 + (n-1)0.2}=50.4
n{11 - 0.2n}=100.8
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2*5.6 its 11.2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
11n -0.2n^2 =100.8
11n -2/10 n^2 =100.8
110n -2n^2 =1008
OpenStudy (anonymous):
11.2-0.2=11
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh

110n -2n^2 =1008
2n^2-110n+1008=0
n^2-55n+504=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how did became 110n -2n^2 =1008
