http://prntscr.com/f336g7

rootbeer003:

these might be familiar cause i gotta do it again

satellite73:

there is some formula for this, but you can just add the numbers right?

rootbeer003:

idk..

rootbeer003:

what do the dots mean

satellite73:

what do you mean idk you can use wolfram http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1%2F2%2B1%2B2%2B4%2B8%2B16%2B32

rootbeer003:

c?

satellite73:

the dots mean the pattern continues, double every time

rootbeer003:

b then

satellite73:

ok b

satellite73:

then for the next one there are taking half it looks like

rootbeer003:

c

satellite73:

oh no one quarter

rootbeer003:

c

satellite73:

make technology work for you ]http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sum+0+to+7+(-800)(1%2F4)%5Ek

rootbeer003:

c????????????

satellite73:

yeah looks like C

rootbeer003:

http://prntscr.com/f3387c

satellite73:

wolf says http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sum+1+to+10++2%5Ek

rootbeer003:

u ok der?

satellite73:

yeah i had to figure out how to enter the next one http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sum+0+to+7+3*4%5Ek

rootbeer003:

kaboom

satellite73:

how are you supposed to do these?

rootbeer003:

lol

satellite73:

i am trying to figure out how many terms the last one has

satellite73:

i think 8 terms http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=sum+k+%3D+0+to+8++216*(-1%2F6)%5Ek

satellite73:

looks like B

rootbeer003:

there is no 1944

rootbeer003:

k lets see if ur right

rootbeer003:

correct!

satellite73:

whew how are are you supposed to do it, any idea?

rootbeer003:

no and i dont wanna know

satellite73:

it must be some programmable calculator exercise the answers are only approximate anyways

rootbeer003:

http://prntscr.com/f33ats

satellite73:

first two are right

satellite73:

last one i forget the formula

rootbeer003:

well im right

satellite73:

yes, you are always right

rootbeer003:

chaching

satellite73:

however you did it maybe just add?

rootbeer003:

http://prntscr.com/f33bqz

satellite73:

\[12+14+16+18+20+22+24+26+28+30+32\]

satellite73:

idk it is arithmetic do you know what "partial sum" means?

rootbeer003:

b?

satellite73:

\[.05(n-1)-.6\] put \(n=1\) you get \[-.6\] for the first term

satellite73:

but they all have that then put \(n=1\) and add that to the first number get \[-.6-.05-.6\]

rootbeer003:

ok i gtg in 5 mins les hurry

satellite73:

i don't see the correct answer there

satellite73:

so lets move on the next one first partial sum is \(\frac{5}{8}\) second partial sum is \[\frac{5}{8}+\frac{5}{8}\times 3\]

satellite73:

that second number is \(2.5\) so it has to be A

rootbeer003:

is the first question right?

satellite73:

no, first question i don't see a correct answer to

rootbeer003:

ook

satellite73:

ooh i see i was wrong

satellite73:

first partial sum is \(-.6\) second is \(-.6+.05-.6=-1.15\)

satellite73:

third is \[-1.15+.05-.6\] whatever that is

satellite73:

damn no even that is wrong

rootbeer003:

wait so what is the answer on what question

rootbeer003:

ok i gtg screw this
