How do you find the sum of a set of numbers?

To find the sum of a set of numbers, you can use this formula: ∑ = (x)(x+1)/2 That is..... The sum = (The number of samples)(The number of samples + 1)/2 Example: What is the sum of all numbers between 500 and 1000? Assuming that we do not include 500 or 1000 in our answer, we have 498 numbers to add up. Let's put that into the formula.... ∑ = (498)(498+1)/2 ∑ = (498)(499)/2 ∑ = (248,502)/2 ∑ = 124,251 The Answer is 124,251


What is the estimate of the sum of 14.30 143.08 and 19.74?

Well, the idea is to round each number, then add them. This basically allows you to do estimated calculations in your head, whereas the complete operation would require (for most people) to use pencil and paper, or a calculator. Since there are different ways to round numbers, the answers may vary. I would suggest, in this case, to round each number to the nearest multiple of 10.


How do you use rounding to estimate a product?

You round the two numbers you are multiplying and try it. Lets use 16 and 13 and round to the nearest ten. We would round 16 to 20, and 13 to 10. Then we multiply 20 and 10 and get 200. So the answer would be around 200. The actual answer is 208 by the way.


What is the sum of the first 22 odd numbers?

The sum of a sequence is given by sum = n/2(2a + (n-1)d) where: n = how many a = first number of sequence d = difference between terms of sequence. For the first 22 odd numbers these are: n = 22 a = 1 d = 2 → sum = 22/2(2×1 + (22 - 1)×2)) = 22² = 484 The sum of the first n odd numbers is always n²: sum = n/2(2×1 + (n-1)2) = n/2(1 + (n-1))×2 = n(n) = n²


What is the best way to estimate the solution of a quadratic equation?

I don't think there is any easy way to estimate it; just use the quadratic equation to calculate the solutions. You can round some of the numbers to get an estimate; in this case you might even do most of the calculation in your head, but it's probably easier just to do the full calculation.
