The given geometric series as shown in the question is seen to; Be converging with its' sum as 81

<h3>How to identify a converging or diverging series?</h3>

We are given the geometric series;

27 + 18 + 12 + 8 + ...

Now, we see that;

First term; a₀ = 27

Second Term; a₁ = 2(27/3)

Third term; a₂ = 2²(27/3²)

Fourth term; a₃ = 2³(27/3³)

Thus, the formula is;

2ⁿ(27/3ⁿ)

Applying limits at infinity gives;

2^(∞) * (27/3^(∞)) = 0

Since the  terms of the series tend to zero, we can affirm that the series converges.

The sum of an infinite converging series is:

S_n = a/(1 - r)

S_n = 27/(1 - (2/3)

S_n = 81

Doug's Bar is 40 km away from Kieran's Bar
John's Bar is 10 km nearer to Doug's Bar than Kieran's Bar

If I am to assume that these bar are in a liner position,

                                                           *********30 km**************

Doug's Bar is 90 km away from Ben's Bar.

Ben to John = 60 km 
John to Doug = 30 km
Ben to Doug = 60 + 30 = 90 km.

Jake is buying a sweater with the price of 30 dollars the store is having a sell that will reduce the price by 30%. Sales tax of
shusha [124]

Answer:Jake's total cost is $22.05

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial price of the sweater is $30. The store is having a sell that will reduce the price by 30%. This means that there is a reduction in the original amount of the sweater by 30% which is expressed as

30/100 × 30 = $9

The new price of the sweater would be 30 - 9 = $21

Since a sales tax of 5% will be added to the final purchase price, the value of the tax would be

5/100 × 21 = 0.05×21 = $1.05

Jake's total cost would be

21 + 1.05 = $22.05

AysviL [449]

To solve this problem, we must figure out what percent of the total spending was spent on mommy and baby exercise programs. To figure this out, we should divide how much was spent on the mommy and baby exercise by the total amount spent on the district activities.

$1430/$5720 = 0.25

This is a percentage, or a portion out of 100, which means we must multiply this decimal by 100 to find its equivalent percentage.

0.25 * 100 = 25

Therefore, your answer is 25% of the total spending was spent on mommy and baby exercise programs.

Hope this helps!
