Evaluate the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of the quotient of 3 and 2 raised the quantity n minus 1 power

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3*∑ (1/2)^n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the summation from n = 1 to n = ∞, for:

∑ 3/(2)^(n - 1)

We know that the summation between k = 0, and k = N - 1 for:

∑ r^k = (1 - r^N)/(1 - r)

if we have the summation between k = 0 and k = ∞ - 1 = ∞

(here we used that ∞ is really big, then ∞ - 1 = ∞)

In the numerator we will have the term r^∞, if 0 < r < 1, then r^∞ = 0.

Then if we assume that 0 < r < 1 we can write:

∑ r^k =  1/(1 - r)

In our case, we can rewrite our summation as:

3*∑ (1/2)^n

for n = 0 to  n = ∞

You can see that i changed the limits for n, this does not really matter because we are summing between a number and infinity, the only thing you need to take care is that now the power is n, instead of (n - 1)

Then we have r = (1/2) which is clearly smaller than 1.

then (1/2)

Then this summation is equal to:

3*∑ (1/2)^n = 3*( 1/(1 - 1/2)) = 3*( 1/( 2/2 - 1/2)) = 3*( 1/(1/2)) = 3*2 = 6

3*∑ (1/2)^n = 6

Miguel compró 253 Kilos de pescado para venderlo en su negocio, si decide vender cada kilo de pescado en Bs 1.900.000. Entonces, ¿Cuánto dinero recaudó en total por la venta del pescado?

Answers

Answer:

Miguel recaudó Bs 480.700.000 por la venta del pescado.

Step-by-step explanation:

Con la información proporcionada puedes calcular el dinero que recaudó en total por la venta del pescado multiplicando el precio de venta de cada kilo de pescado por el número de kilos que Miguel compró:

Número de kilos comprados=253

Precio de venta por kilo=1.900.000

Total vendido=253*1.900.000

Total vendido=480.700.000

De acuerdo a esto, la respuesta es que Miguel recaudó Bs 480.700.000 por la venta del pescado.

f of x equals one half times x plus 16
f of x equals one half times x plus 19
f(x) = 2x + 16
f(x) = 2x + 19

Answers

Answer:

Part 1) Option A. f of x equals one half times x plus 16

Part 2) Option  A. x = 5

Part 3) Option C. x − 4y = −9

Part 4) Option A. The number of rides is the independent variable, and the total cost is the dependent variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

Let

x -----> the number of months

y ----> vertical jump in inches

step 1

Find the slope

we have the points

(0,16) and (2,17)

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is

we have

-----> the point (0,16) is the y-intercept

substitute

convert to function notation

f(x)=y

Part 2) What is the equation of a line that contains the points (5, 0) and (5, −2)?

step 1

Find the slope

we have the points

(5, 0) and (5, −2)

the slope is undefined

This is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

therefore

The equation is

x=5

Part 3) Choose the equation that represents a line that passes through points (−1, 2) and (3, 1)

step 1

Find the slope

we have the points

(−1, 2) and (3, 1)

 

step 2

Find the equation of the line into point slope form

we have

substitute

Convert to standard form

Multiply by 4 both sides to remove the fraction

Part 4) Jewels has $6.75 to ride the ferry around Connecticut. It will cost her $0.45 every time she rides. Identify the dependent variable and independent variable in this scenario

we know that

The independent variable is the variable whose change isn’t affected by any other variable (An example the age and time)

The dependent variable it’s what changes as a result of the changes to the independent variable (An example of a dependent variable is how tall you are at different ages. The dependent variable (height) depends on the independent variable (age))

Let

x ----> the number of rides

y ----> the total cost in dollars

In this problem

The independent variable or input is the number of rides

The dependent variable or output is the total cost

-brainly user

Answer:

Your function would be y = 1/2x + 16.

Explanation:

Points: (0, 16); (2, 17)

Slope: m = (17 - 16) / (2 - 0) = 1/2

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

So, if the slope equals 1/2 and the y-intercept is (0, 16), you would use substitution to get y = 1/2x + 16.

Therefore, your ending function is y = 1/2x + 16.

Draymond has $10.00 for lunch. He and his friend order pizza for $6,90 and two drinks for $1.50 each. Does he have enough money? Explain how you know below for full credit.

Answers

yes. the total when added together is $9.90, meaning that he has just enough for them to get a pizza and one drink each.

Step-by-step explanation:

6.90

1.50

1.50

9.90

Answer:

Yes, he has enough money.

Step-by-step explanation:

He will have .10 left over. The pizza is $6.90 and the drinks are $1.50 each.

1.50 + 1.50 = 3.00

6.90 + 3.00 = 9.90

He spends $9.90, so he will be 10 cents short of spending all of his lunch money. Therefore, he has enough money.

(9) [tex]3x - y = -54[/tex] and [tex]4x + y = -30[/tex]

(10) [tex]x + y = 2[/tex] and [tex]x - y = 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [Missing from the question]

[tex](8).\ (-6,-2)\ \\ (9).\ (-12,18)\ \\ (10).\ (2,0)[/tex]

Required

Write a system of linear equations

The solutions to this question is open and have different solutions

Solving (8) (-6,-2)

Let the equations be: x + y and 2x - y

[tex]x + y = -6 - 2[/tex]

[tex]x + y = -8[/tex] --- (1)

[tex]2x - y = 2 * (-6) - (-2)[/tex]

[tex]2x - y = -10[/tex] -- (2)

So, the equations are:

[tex]x + y = -8[/tex] and [tex]2x - y = -10[/tex]

Solving (9) (-12, 18)

Let the equations be: 3x - y and 4x + y

[tex]3x - y = 3 *(-12) - 18[/tex]

[tex]3x - y = -54[/tex]

[tex]4x + y = 4 * (-12) + 18[/tex]

[tex]4x + y = -30[/tex]

So, the equations are:

[tex]3x - y = -54[/tex] and [tex]4x + y = -30[/tex]

Solving (9): (2,0)

Let the equations be: x + y and x - y

[tex]x + y = 2 + 0[/tex]

[tex]x + y = 2[/tex]

[tex]x - y = 2 - 0[/tex]

[tex]x - y = 2[/tex]

So, the equations are:

[tex]x + y = 2[/tex] and [tex]x - y = 2[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

They have no relation, except for the fact that they intersect. If the equations were instead y = +5/4x - 1/2 and y = -4/5x + 2, or y = +4/5 + 2 and y = -5/4x -1/2, then they would be perpendicular.

Option 3 is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given lines y = -4/5x+2 and y = -5/4x - 1/2

we have to identify whether lines are parallel or perpendicular.

As we know if two lines are perpendicular then gradients of two lines will in the form of

m1 m2=(-1)

and if the lines are parallel then the gradients of the lines will be same.

m1=m2

Here m1 = -4/5 and m2 = -5/4

Therefore

m1m2=(-4/5)(-5/4)=(+1)

and  

m1≠m2

So both the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other.

Option 3 is the right answer.

ANSWER :

x⁰ = 360 degree- ( 246 + 66)

= 360 degree- 312

= 48

Answer:

x = 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

You are trying to figure out what the arc is in degrees. The arc formula is

Intersect angle = 1/2( the furthest arc - the smaller closer arc).

Givens

Intersect angle = 66 degrees

Closer arc = x

Further or largest Arc = 246

Solution

66 = 1/2 (246 - x)                  Multiply both sides by 2 and remove the brackets.

132 = 246 - x                        Subtract 246 from both sides.

132 - 246 = - x

- 114 = - x                             Multiply both sides by -1

-1 (-114) = -1 * (-x)

x = 114
