What is the sum of the geometric sequence 1, 3, 9, ... if there are 10 terms? (5 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a handy formula we can use to find the sum of a geometric sequence, and here it is

[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1 (1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]

The value n represents the amount of terms you want to sum in the sequence. The variable r is known as the common ratio, and a is just some constant. Let's find those values.

First lets visualize this sequence

[tex]n_1 = 1\\n_2 = 1 + 3\\n_3 = 1 + 3 + 3^2\\n_4=1+3+3^2+3^3\\...[/tex]

Okay so there's clearly a pattern here, let's write it a bit more concisely. For each n, starting at 1, we raise 3 to the (n-1) power, add it to what we had for the previous term.

[tex]S_n = \sum{3^{n-1}} = 3^{1 - 1} + 3^{2 - 1} + 3^{3-1} ...[/tex]

Our coefficients of r, and a, are already here! As you can see below, r is just 3, and a is just 1.

[tex]S_n = \sum{a*r^{n-1}}[/tex]

To finish up lets plug these coefficients in and get our sum after 10 terms.

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

6x^3-2x^2+4x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x^2 +4x-6

g(x) = 6x^3 -5x^2 -2

f(x) + g(x) =  3x^2 +4x-6+ 6x^3 -5x^2 -2

Combine like terms

f(x) + g(x) = 6x^3+3x^2-5x^2+4x-6-2

Answer:

[tex]6 {x}^{3} - 2 {x}^{2} + 4x - 8[/tex]

Answer C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x) = 3 {x}^{2} + 4x - 6 \\ g(x) = 6 {x}^{3} - 5 {x}^{2} - 2 \\ (f + g)(x) =( 3 {x}^{2} + 4x - 6) + (6 {x}^{3} - 5 {x}^{2} - 2) \\ = 3 {x}^{2} + 4x - 6 +6 {x}^{3} - 5 {x}^{2} - 2 \\ = 6 {x}^{3} - 2 {x}^{2} + 4x - 8[/tex]

Farmer Dave harvested his corn. He stored 5/9 of his corn in one large silo and ¾ of the remaining corn in a small silo. The rest was taken to market to be sold.
a. What fraction of the corn was stored in the small silo?
b. If he harvested 18 tons of corn, how many tons did he take to market?

Answers

After storing 5/9 in the large silo there was 4/9 left ( 1-5/9 = 4/9)

A. Multiply 4/9 by 3/4:

4/9 x 3/4 = 12/36 = 1/3

1/3 of the corn was in the small silo.

B. 1-5/9 -1/3 = 4/9-1/3 = 4/9-3/9 = 1/9

1/9 of the corn went to market:

18 x 1/9 = 18/9 = 2

2 ton went to market.

(1+y²)dx + (1+x²)dy = 0

Answers

This differential equation is separable:

(1 + y²) dx + (1 + x²) dy = 0

(1 + y²) dx = - (1 + x²) dy

dy/(1 + y²) = -dx/(1 + x²)

Integrating both sides gives

arctan(y) = -arctan(x) + C

and solving for y gives (over an appropriate domain)

y = tan(C - arctan(x))

(the domain being -1 ≤ y ≤ 1).

Now, we divide 586 by the number of things there are. 586 / 8 = 73.25.

The mean of the swear words condition is 73.25.

what represent the area of the rectangle in cm^2??

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  d.  3x² +15x

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is the product of length and width.

  A = LW

  A = (3x)(x+5) = 3x(x) +3x(5) . . . . use the distributive property

  A = 3x² +15x

Answer: D) 3x^2 + 15

==========================================================

Explanation:

Draw a horizontal line to divide the rectangle into two parts (they don't necessarily have to be equal parts). Refer to the diagram below. The upper rectangle is x by 3x. So its area is length*width = x*3x = 3x^2

The lower rectangle is 5 by 3x, so its area is 5*3x = 15x

Combine those two sub-areas back together to get the overall area of 3x^2 + 15x

You could also use the distribution rule

3x*(x+5) = 3x*(x) + 3x*(5) = 3x^2 + 15x

A company producing a standard line and a deluxe line of dishwashers has the following time requirements (in minutes) in departments where either model can be processed.

STANDARD DELUXE
STAMPING 3 6
Motor installation 10 10

The standard models contribute $20 each and the deluxe $30 each to profits. Because the Company produces other items that share resources used to make the dishwashers, the Stamping machine is available only 30 minutes per hour, on average. The motor installation Production line has 60 minutes available each hour. There are two lines for wiring, so the time Availability is 90 minutes per hour.

Availability Average :

Stamping machine S= 30 minutes per hour

Motor installation Production M=60 minutes

Wiring is W=90 minutes per hour

Generally the formulation of the linear program is given as

[tex]Maximium (M)=20x + 30 y[/tex]

Where

For Stamping machine

[tex]S= 3x + 6y \leq 30.....Equ 1[/tex]

For Motor installation Production

[tex]10x + 10y \leq 60....Equ 2[/tex]

For Wiring

[tex]10x + 15y \leq 90....Equ3[/tex]

Therefore

Solving Equ...(1,2,3) simultaneously we have
