Options:
[tex](a) $\frac{1}{2}$\\(b) $\frac{2}{5}$[/tex]

Answers

Answer 1

Let

[tex]S_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^n r^k = 1 + r + r^2 + \cdots + r^n[/tex]

where we assume |r| < 1. Multiplying on both sides by r gives

[tex]r S_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^n r^{k+1} = r + r^2 + r^3 + \cdots + r^{n+1}[/tex]

and subtracting this from [tex]S_n[/tex] gives

[tex](1 - r) S_n = 1 - r^{n+1} \implies S_n = \dfrac{1 - r^{n+1}}{1 - r}[/tex]

As n → ∞, the exponential term will converge to 0, and the partial sums [tex]S_n[/tex] will converge to

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} S_n = \dfrac1{1-r}[/tex]

Now, we're given

[tex]a + ar + ar^2 + \cdots = 15 \implies 1 + r + r^2 + \cdots = \dfrac{15}a[/tex]

[tex]a^2 + a^2r^2 + a^2r^4 + \cdots = 150 \implies 1 + r^2 + r^4 + \cdots = \dfrac{150}{a^2}[/tex]

We must have |r| < 1 since both sums converge, so

[tex]\dfrac{15}a = \dfrac1{1-r}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{150}{a^2} = \dfrac1{1-r^2}[/tex]

Solving for r by substitution, we have

[tex]\dfrac{15}a = \dfrac1{1-r} \implies a = 15(1-r)[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{150}{225(1-r)^2} = \dfrac1{1-r^2}[/tex]

Recalling the difference of squares identity, we have

[tex]\dfrac2{3(1-r)^2} = \dfrac1{(1-r)(1+r)}[/tex]

We've already confirmed r ≠ 1, so we can simplify this to

[tex]\dfrac2{3(1-r)} = \dfrac1{1+r} \implies \dfrac{1-r}{1+r} = \dfrac23 \implies r = \dfrac15[/tex]

It follows that

[tex]\dfrac a{1-r} = \dfrac a{1-\frac15} = 15 \implies a = 12[/tex]

and so the sum we want is

[tex]ar^3 + ar^4 + ar^6 + \cdots = 15 - a - ar - ar^2 = \boxed{\dfrac3{25}}[/tex]

which doesn't appear to be either of the given answer choices. Are you sure there isn't a typo somewhere?

What is a proportional relationship?

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality, which is also called the slope.

Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that in 2 hours, Tim traveled 50 miles, hence:

k = 50/2 = 25.

The slope of the line is of 25, so the distance traveled by Tim is 25 miles every hour.

Answers

The volume of the solid is the amount of space in it.

The points on the graph are (0,0) and (1,7)

How to determine the points?

The volume is given as:

V1 = 7

The scale factor is given as:

k

Let the new volume be V.

So, we have:

V = V1 * k^3

Substitute 7 for V1

V = 7k^3

Divide both sides by 7

k^3 = V/7

Take the cube root of both sides

k = (V/7)^1/3

Next, we test the options

a. (0,0)

k = (0/7)^1/3

k = 0 --- this is true

b. (1,1)

k = (1/7)^1/3

k = 0.05 --- this is false

c. (1,7)

k = (7/7)^1/3

k = 1 --- this is true

d (7, 1)

k = (1/7)^1/3

k = 0.05 --- this is false

e. (14,2)

k = (2/7)^1/3

k = 0.10 --- this is false

f. (49,2)

k = (2/7)^1/3

k = 0.10 --- this is false

g. (56,2)

k = (2/7)^1/3

k = 0.10 --- this is false

h (27,3)

k = (3/7)^1/3

k = 0.14 --- this is false

Hence, the points on the graph are (0,0) and (1,7)

Write a proportion for the statement.
$118 per week is proportional to $472 per 4 weeks. The proportion is _____?

Writing Proportions

A proportion is a mathematical comparison between two ratios.

A ratio is a comparison between two numbers.

For instance, the ratio of apples to bananas in a fruit basket is 1 apple to 2 bananas:

[tex]\dfrac{1\hspace{3}apple}{2\hspace{3}bananas}[/tex]

This is proportional to the ratio of apples to bananas in another fruit basket, which is 2 apples to 4 bananas:

[tex]\dfrac{2\hspace{3}apples}{4\hspace{3}bananas}[/tex]

To write a proportion from this information, we can compare the ratios by makign them equal to each other:

[tex]\dfrac{1\hspace{3}apple}{2\hspace{3}bananas}=\dfrac{2\hspace{3}apples}{4\hspace{3}bananas}[/tex][tex]\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{2}{4}[/tex]

Solving the Question

We're given:

$118 per week$472 per 4 weeksThese are proportional

$118 per week is one ratio:

[tex]\dfrac{118\hspace{3}dollars}{1\hspace{3}week}[/tex]

$472 per 4 weeks is another ratio:

[tex]\dfrac{472\hspace{3}dollars}{4\hspace{3}weeks}[/tex]

Now, set them equal to each other to create a proportion:

[tex]\dfrac{118\hspace{3}dollars}{1\hspace{3}week}=\dfrac{472\hspace{3}dollars}{4\hspace{3}weeks}\\\\\dfrac{118}{1}=\dfrac{472}{4}[/tex]
