Find the sum of the first five terms using the geometric series formula for the sequence 1/2, -1,2,-4…

The sum of the first five terms is 11/2

<h3>How to determine the sum?</h3>

The series is given as:

1/2, -1,2,-4…

Calculate the common ratio of the series using

r = -4/2

Evaluate

r = -2

The sum is then calculated as:

S_n = a\frac{1 - r^n}{1 - r}

This gives

S_n = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{(1 - (-2)^5}{1 + 2}

Evaluate

S_n = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{33)}{3}

Evaluate

S_n =\frac{11}{2}

Hence, the sum of the first five terms is 11/2

In the diagram below, every pair of segments which do not intersect are parallel, and the measure of angle k is 89 degrees. What
solong [7]
From the figure shown:
Given that k=89, then:
c=g=k=o=s=w=89
b=f=j=n=r=v=89
d=h=l=p=t=x=180-89=91
a=e=i=m=q=u=91
thus the sum of <span> s,e,q,u,o,i,a will be:
</span>s+e+q+u+o+i+a
=89+91+91+91+89+91+91
=633°

Answer: 633°

Algunos numerod irracionales tienen representacion decimal infinta y periodica .<br>​
ANTONII [103]

Answer:Se dice que cualquier número que no se pueda expresar como una razón de dos enteros es irracional. Su representación decimal no termina ni se repite infinitamente, sino que se extiende para siempre sin repetición regular. Ejemplos de números tan irracionales son la raíz cuadrada de 2 y π.

The graph below has the same shape. what is the equation of the graph?
Nataly_w [17]

C; A and B are incorrect because the shift is not vertical, it is horizontal. This is because 3 is in parenthesis or a 'grouping' (same thing if it is in an exponent) and is being modified. Since the graph is being translated down 3 units, D is incorrect since it is a translation up 3 units. The answer is C.

True or false
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The given statement is FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the original expression is defined for all values of x , then this implies there is no real value of x such that the original expression is not defined.

Hence, the original expression has domain all real values x

Now, the simplified form which is obtained by simplifying the original expression may not have the same domain as the original expression.

So, if original expression is defined on some value of x then it might be possible that the simplified expression may not be defined on that value of x.

So, we need to specify the absolute value in the simplified expression.

Hence the given statement is FALSE.
