Answer:
(d) -1.83
Step-by-step explanation:
The explicit expression for the sum is ...
S = (-11/5)×(1 -(-1/5)^10)/(1 -(-1/5)) = -2.2(1 -1.024×10^-7)/1.2
S = -1.8333331456
The sum is approximately -1.83.

A calculator or spreadsheet can also find the sum for you.
This is one of those problems where you'll sink like a rock if
you allow yourself to be blinded by all the useless, unnecessary,
irrelevant information in the first paragraph.
The ONLY information you need is:
-- You're chartering a bus for 1 day.
-- It costs $780 .
That's ALL .
(You don't even need to know that the bus has 55 seats.
You might need that for #8 - #12, but not for #6 or #7.)
_________________________
If the people on the trip are going to share the cost of the bus,
then the cost of each share depends on the number of people.
Less people ==> each one pays more.
More people ==> each one pays less.
Just like everybody in the office sharing the cost of
a birthday gift for the boss.
#6 and #7 should really be done in the reverse order ...
do #7 before you worry about #6.
Before you can fill in the table in #6, you absolutely need
to have the equation, whether or not you realize it.
The total cost is fixed . . . It's $780 .
If 2 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 2 .
If 3 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 3 .
If 4 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 4 .
If 5 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 5 .
.
.
If 10 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 10 .
.
.
If 20 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 20 .
.
.
If ' n ' people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / n .
.
. until the bus is full ...
.
If 55 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 55 .
.
If 56 people go on the trip, then you need another bus,
and it gets more complicated.
But up to 55, the price per person is (780 / the number of people).
<span> #7). P = 780 / n .
</span>Now, filling in the table in #6 is a piece 'o cake.<span>
</span>5 people. . . . . . . 780 / 5
10 people . . . . . 780 / 10
15 people . . . . . 780 / 15
20 people . . . . . 780 / 20
.
.
etc.
Just don't go past 55 people. The equation changes after that.
For ANY number of people, even hundreds, and ANY number
of buses, I think the equation looks something like this:
P = (785/n) · [ 1 + int(n/56) ] .
' int ' means ' the greatest integer in ... ', that is,
' throw away the fractional part of the quotient,
and use only the whole number '.
Answer:
The value of x component changes at a rate of units per second
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Differentiating on both sides with respect to time we get
It is given that
Solving for we get
Answer:
The number of liters of 50% antifreeze solution is 50 and the number of liters of 90% antifreeze solution is 150
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> number of liters of 50% antifreeze solution
y ----> number of liters of 90% antifreeze solution
we know that
50%=50/100=0.50
90%=90/100=0.90
80%=80/100=0.80
x+y=200
x=200-y ------> equation A
0.50x+0.90y=0.8(200) -----> equation B
substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y
0.50(200-y)+0.90y=160
100-0.50y+0.90y=160
0.40y=160-100
0.40y=60
y=150 liters
Find the value of x
x=200-y
x=200-150=50 liters
therefore
The number of liters of 50% antifreeze solution is 50
The number of liters of 90% antifreeze solution is 150
