Identify the following series as arithmetic, geometric, both, or neither
[tex]2x + 2 {x}^{2} + 2 {x}^{3} + ... + 2 {x}^{n} [/tex]

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The series is

[tex]2x+2x^2+2x^3+...+2x^n[/tex]

To find:

Whether the given series is arithmetic, geometric, both, or neither.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]2x+2x^2+2x^3+...+2x^n[/tex]

Difference between consecutive terms are:

[tex]d_1=a_2-a_1[/tex]

[tex]d_1=2x^2-2x[/tex]

[tex]d_1=2x(x-1)[/tex]

And,

[tex]d_2=a_3-a_2[/tex]

[tex]d_2=2x^3-2x^2[/tex]

[tex]d_2=2x^2(x-1)[/tex]

Here, [tex]d_1\neq d_2[/tex].

So, the given series is not an arithmetic series.

Ratio between consecutive terms are:

[tex]r_1=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}[/tex]

[tex]r_1=\dfrac{2x^2}{2x}[/tex]

[tex]r_1=x[/tex]

And,

[tex]r_2=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}[/tex]

[tex]r_2=\dfrac{2x^3}{2x^2}[/tex]

[tex]r_2=x[/tex]

Similarly upto last pair of consecutive terms.

[tex]r_{n-1}=\dfrac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}[/tex]

[tex]r_{n-1}=\dfrac{2x^n}{2x^{n-1}}[/tex]

[tex]r_{n-1}=x[/tex]

Since, [tex]r_1=r_2=...=r_{n-1}[/tex], so the given series have a common ratio.

Therefore, it is a geometric series.

Answer:

  29.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be rearranged to give C directly.

  C = arccos((a^2 +b^2 -c^2)/(2ab))

  C = arccos((90^2 +55^2 -50^2)/(2·90·55))

  C = arccos(8625/9900) ≈ 29.4002°

  C ≈ 29.4°

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression g(c) = 6c/2, we are to find the value when c = 2

Substitute c = 2 into the expression

g(2) = 6(2)/2

g(2) = 12/2

g(2) = 6

Hence the result when c = 2 is 6

Four copies of the triangle shown are joined together, without gaps or overlaps, to make a parallelogram. measurements= 5cm, 13cm, 12cm What is the largest possible perimeter of the parallelogram?

Answers

Answer:

Highest Possible Perimeter = 52cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is not shown. But, the question can still be solved.

The given sides (5cm,12cm and 13cm) of the triangle shows that the triangle is a right angled triangle as proven below:.

[tex]13\² = 5\² + 12\²[/tex]

[tex]169 = 25 + 144[/tex]

[tex]169 = 169[/tex]

Having shown that;

The next step is to determine the highest possible value of the perimeter.

To get the highest possible perimeter;

The 4 triangles have to be joined at the 12cm and 5cm part of each triangle (see attachment).

From the attachment, the perimeter is then calculated as:

Perimeter = 13cm + 13cm + 13cm+ 13cm

Perimeter = 52 cm

Jodie spent 25% less buying her English reading books thank Claudia. .Gianna spent 9% less than Claudia. Gianna spent more than Jodie by what percent? If your using decimal round to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer:

21.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Money spent by Jodie for buying English reading books = 25% lesser than that of Claudia

and

Money spent by Gianna is 9% lesser than that of Claudia.

To find:

By what percent, Gianna spent more than Jodie ?

Solution:

Let the money spent by Claudia on her English books = 100

Now, as per question statement:

Money spent by Jodie = 100 - [tex]\frac{9}{100}\times 100[/tex] = 75

Money spent by Gianna = 100 - [tex]\frac{25}{100}\times 100[/tex] = 91

Now, to find the answer:

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Difference between money spent by Gianna and Jodie}}{\text{Money spent by Jodie}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{91-75}{75}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{16}{75}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \bold{21.3\%}[/tex]

Therefore, Gianna spent 21.3% more than the amount that was spent by Jodie.

Answers

Answer:

a) 15 + 25x ≤ 70

b) 60 + 15x ≤ 500

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let x represent the number of calculators that Ms. Burgos can buy. since each calculator cost $25, then the total cost of calculator = $25 * x = $25x

She bought three notebooks costing $5 each. Money spent on notebooks = 3 * $5 = $15

Hence the total money spent = $15 + $25x = 15 + 25x

She has only $70, therefore:

15 + 25x ≤ 70

b) Cayla initially has $60.

Cayla is saving $15 per week. Let us assume she saves for x weeks, hence money saved by Cayla = 15x

Therefore the total money saved = 60 + 15x

Since Cayla needs to save atleast $500, hence:

60 + 15x ≤ 500

What is the equation?

-4n + 1/3m + 4n - 4/5m​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]-4n+\frac{1}{3m}+4n-\frac{4}{5m}=-\frac{7}{15m}[/tex]        

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

[tex]-4n\:+\:\frac{1}{3m}\:+\:4n\:-\frac{4}{5m}[/tex]

Group like terms

[tex]-4n\:+\:\frac{1}{3m}\:+\:4n\:-\frac{4}{5m}=-4n+4n+\frac{1}{3m}-\frac{4}{5m}[/tex]

Adding similar elements: -4n + 4n = 0

                                      [tex]=\frac{1}{3m}-\frac{4}{5m}[/tex]          

L.C.M of 3m and 5n will be: 15m

so adjusting fractions based on the LCM

                                       [tex]=\frac{5}{15m}-\frac{12}{15m}[/tex]      

Since, the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:  [tex]\frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}[/tex]

                                       [tex]=\frac{5-12}{15m}[/tex]

                                       [tex]=\frac{-7}{15m}[/tex]

                                       [tex]=-\frac{7}{15m}[/tex]

Therefore, we conclude that:

[tex]-4n+\frac{1}{3m}+4n-\frac{4}{5m}=-\frac{7}{15m}[/tex]                    

In psychological theory, there are 66 types of basic instincts in a human being, and personality is determined by the presence or absence (2(2 choices) of these 66 basic instincts. How many different types of personalities can be identified

Answers

Answer:

2145

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of basic instincts present = 66

Number of choices = 2

Using combination :

nCr = n! / (n - r)! r!

66C2 = 66! / (66 - 2)!2!

66C2 = 66! / 64!2!

66C2 = (66 * 65) / 2

66C2 = 2145 different personalities
