Geometric series 2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + ... , find tn

Mathematics
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]2 years ago
4 0

The function that gives the value of <em>tn</em> for the geometric series is presented as follows;

t_n = 2 \times 3^{(n - 1)}

<h3>How can the expression that represents the geometric series be found?</h3>

The given geometric series is presented as follows;

2 + 6 + 18 + 54 +...

From the above series, we have;

  • First term, <em>a</em> = 2

  • Common ratio, <em>r </em>= 6 ÷ 2 = 18 ÷ 6 = 54 ÷ 18 = 3

The nth term of the geometric series is therefore;

t_n = a \cdot r^{(n - 1)}

Which gives;

t_n = 2 \times 3^{(n - 1)}

Where, tn is the nth term

• What is the solution to 5x+ 20 = 7(x+2)?
o-na [289]

For this case we must find the solution of the following equation:

5x + 20 = 7 (x + 2)

Applying distributive property on the right side of the equation we have:

5x + 20 = 7x + 14

Subtracting 7x from both sides of the equation:

5x-7x + 20 = 14\\-2x + 20 = 14

Subtracting 20 from both sides of the equation:

-2x = 14-20

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

-2x = -6

Dividing between -2 on both sides of the equation:

x = \frac {-6} {- 2}\\x = 3

Thus, the solution of the equation isx = 3

Answer:

x = 3

eimsori [14]

Answer:

The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.

The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Monique\ made\ several\ batches\ of\ soup\ for\ a\ potluck\ supper.

Each\ batch\ required\ \frac{3}{4}\ of\ a\ pound\ of\ potatoes.

she\ used\ a\ total\ of\ 6 \frac{1}{2}\ pounds\ of\ potatoes.

As given the expression.

= \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}

= \frac{\frac{13}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}

Solving the above

= \frac{13\times 4}{2\times 3}

= \frac{26}{3}

In the decimal form.

= 8.67 (Approx)

Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.

Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).

Joshua’s computer loan statement said he would pay $1,244.34 in simple interest for a three-year loan at 12.4%. How much did Jos
rusak2 [61]

Answer: Josh borrowed $ 876  to buy the computer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for simple interest : I = Prt

, where P = principal amount

r= rate of interest ( in decimal)

t=time (in years)

Total amount with simple interest to pay : A = P+I

⇒ A = P +Prt

⇒ A = P(1 +rt)         (i)

As per given , A = $1,244.34

r= 12.4% = 0.124

t= 3 years

Now, put these values in (i) , we get

1244.34=P(1+0.124)^3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1244.34=P(1.124)^3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1244.34=P(1.420034624)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=\dfrac{1244.34}{1.420034624}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=876.27

Hence, Josh borrowed $ 876  to buy the computer.
