Math Problem Statement

The first term and last term of a parallel series are 17 and 350 respectively. If there is a common difference. Soap M How many 9 will there be and their sum wit?

Solution

It seems you’re referring to an arithmetic sequence with first term a1=17a_1 = 17 and last term an=350a_n = 350, with a common difference dd. However, the phrase “Soap M” and "How many 9 will there be" needs clarification. I’ll assume you're asking about the number of terms in the series, how to find it, and the sum of these terms.

Let's break it down:

  1. Arithmetic Sequence Formula:

    • General term of an arithmetic sequence: an=a1+(n1)da_n = a_1 + (n - 1) \cdot d
    • Where a1=17a_1 = 17, an=350a_n = 350, and dd is the common difference.
  2. Finding nn: 350=17+(n1)d350 = 17 + (n - 1) \cdot d Rearranging the equation: 35017=(n1)d350 - 17 = (n - 1) \cdot d 333=(n1)d333 = (n - 1) \cdot d So: n1=333dn - 1 = \frac{333}{d} n=333d+1n = \frac{333}{d} + 1

    To find nn, we need the common difference dd, which hasn't been provided.

  3. Sum of the Sequence:

    • Sum of an arithmetic sequence: Sn=n2(a1+an)S_n = \frac{n}{2} \cdot (a_1 + a_n)
    • Using a1=17a_1 = 17, an=350a_n = 350, and nn once it's known.

If the "common difference" or further clarification about "how many 9" (possibly referring to the 9th term or a related question) is provided, I can complete the solution.

Do you want to clarify, or shall I proceed assuming d=1d = 1 as an example?


Related Questions:

  1. What happens if the common difference dd is negative?
  2. How do you find the 9th term in the sequence?
  3. What is the sum if the number of terms is known and equal to 50?
  4. How does the formula change if it's a geometric sequence?
  5. Can you find the common difference from two arbitrary terms in the sequence?

Tip:

When dealing with sequences, identifying the common difference early helps in both determining the number of terms and calculating the sum.
