I pick "1". hey, that's what you said! It's not a choice though.\n\nDo you not have a book? Or some type of reference from the class? These kinds of questions can only be answered by the author of the question, meaning USE YOUR BOOK.

If you add the numbers together then they equal an even number.   1 1  1+1=2

You spelled one of them wrongly and badly.\n\nBesides that, do you own homework, you  cheater.

Because it's incredibly difficult to "understand" things that are completely untrue. Go ahead, give it a try. Try to "understand" that 1+1=3. Not so easy, is it?

why write one when there are literally hundreds out there on the web that already do this?\n\nhttp://internet.javascript.com has a lot.

i know how it's done. in the theorm, every number is one higher than stated (ex. 1=2, 2=3, 3=4, etc) since it's 2+2, it's actually 3+3. and if 3+3 =6, and 6=7, then the resulting equation is 2+2=7

true! Its fairly obvious by definition:\n\nfor example:\n2*5 = 5 + 5 = 2+2+2+2+2\n\nAn easier way to see this is through an invention by John Napier called Napier's Bones. He converted all complicated multiplications into simple addition

Looks as though this is some kind of assignment. No? Maybe you ought to think it all through and provide your own answers. You can do it!!\n\nChow!!

Interesting to think about.  I don't agree with the people who said 1+1 is not 3.  While I agree with that statement, I don't agree with that as to being the answer.  You're wanting to know if it is right... and your showing that you are making 1+1 equal 3 by turning it into 1.5 thru mathematical equation.  I need to think about it........no, It can't be.  Because at one point you change x+x= 3 into 2x=3. If x equals 1 then at first you have 1+1=3 then you change it into 2(1)=3  Which means 2•1=3 when it does in fact equal two. When a number and a variable are next to each other, it means they are multiplying.  And in this equation, x=1 so 2x=3 is not correct.  But I like the thought.  Darn, and here I thought I'd just read something that changed the laws of physics and mathematics.

Dear amit.wizkid, thou little knoweth what an abysmal error thou maketh.\n\ntut_einstein, you are better off noting that the sum of the first 'n' terms of an AP, whose first term is 'a' and the difference between terms is 'd' is :\n\nS = (n/2)[2a + (n-1)d]\n\nYou state that \nS1/S2 = (n+1)/(n+3)\n\nwhich is \n\n[2a1 + (n-1)d1] :[2a2 + (n-1)d2] = (n+1) : (n+3) ..... (I)\n\nRemember that what you desire to know is\n(a1 + 5d1) : (a2 + 5d2) \n\nPut n = 11 in (I)\n\n[2a1 + 10 d1] :[2a2 + 10 d2] = 12:14\n\nwhich gives\n\n[a1 + 5d1] : [a2 + 5d2] = 6:7\n\nwhich is what you desire. \n\nShould suffice.

And another thing - won't this person's teacher know (s)he cheated, when the assignment turned in clearly isn't in the student's usual wording or of his/her usual quality? In this day and age, teachers must be pretty good at spotting "cut-and-paste-from-wikipedia"-papers, as well as papers written by other people than the student in question.\nAnyway, thanks for bringing this up, it's nice to see that a lot of people are somewhat annoyed by students using Y! answers as their free, effortless homework-service. :o)

Why didn't you just ask me?  You could have emailed and saved 5 points.\nMy solution did indeed contain a typographical error omitting the q from the value of m.\nAlso, I had amended the solution with a comment shortly after the question had been resolved.  (There was another small error as well.  It is very difficult sometimes typing and then proof-reading mathematical proofs in these Yahoo boxes, especially when they contain alot of special characters.)\n\nSee:\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ApZ1XohHNUdL5xkBg8bXQEfsy6IX?qid=20061124162535AAURdJ5

OK, found the error:\n\nThe sum you have defined is sum(i=1 to n)i(n-i+1)  <== Note "+1"\n\n1. Let n = 1.\nThen 1(1) = 1\nand (1/6)(1)(1+1)(1+2) = 1.\n\n2. Let this be true for n.\nThen sum(i=1 to n)i(n-i) = (1/6)(n)(n+1)(n+2)\n\nSo for sum(i=1 to n+1)(i(n+1-i+1))  <== Note "+1"\n= sum(i=1 to n+1)(i(n-i+1)) + sum(i=1 to n+1)(i)\n= sum(i=1 to n)(i(n-i+1) + 0 + sum(i=1 to n+1)(i)\n\n2a) = n(n+1)(n+2)/6 + (n+1)(n+2)/2\n= (n+1)(n+2)/6 [ n + 3 ]\n= (n+1)(n+2)(n+3) / 6  ==> proof since this is what you expect from the theorem.\n\nEdit: Missing the +1 in the original summation is the issue.

Since the question is relative to whether it is good or not:\nYes, it is.\nWould you like us to work it out as well? I appreciate that it must come right out of a quesiton from, perhaps, your homework? Otherwise, why the last sentence? "One hint is that it is related to chapter- 'CIRCLES'" Can you attach that entire chapter for us as well?\n\nThanks!

Amazing..at least those idiot's rewrote it for the 7th time. I couldn't believe it!!!\n\nThanks for posting this..I've sent this already to several people

12 and 11/6 \nsince 11 contains one more 6 we can rewrite as (12+1)and 5/6  (we have only 5/6 because the rest of 11 goes into the 6/6 which is 1) \nwell, now we have 13 and 5/6 \nyour BLANK is 5
