Answer:

a7=4/3 or a7=-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

using the geometric sequences formula

an=ar^n-1

a2=ar

a4=ar³

when a2=324 and a4=36

324=ar...........(1)

36=ar³............(2)

from equation (1) a=324/r substitute in equation (2)

we have :

36=324/r *r³

36=324r²

r²=36/324

r²=1/9

r=±1/3

substitute when r=±1/3 in (1)

324=a(±1/3)

a=±972

so the 7th term is

when r=±1/3

we have

a7=ar^6

a7=±972(±1/3)^6

a7=972/729

a7=4/3 or a7=-4/3

Suppose a polling agency reported that 45.7% of registered voters were in favor of raising income taxes to pay down the national
sineoko [7]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

As per given , we have

p= 0.457

n= 1033

Margin of error for 99​% confidence : E= 4%=0.04

Confidence interval : p\pm E

i.e. 0.457\pm 0.04

=( 0.457- 0.04,\ 0.457+0.04)=(0.417,\ 0.497)

99% confidence interval for the proportion of registered voters who are in favor of raising income taxes to pay down the national debt. = (0.417, 0.497)

Interpretation : We are 99% sure that the true population proportion of registered voters who are in favor of raising income taxes to pay down the national debt lies in interval (0.417, 0.497).

In 2-3 sentences describe why the only way an infinite geometric series has a sum is if |r| &lt; 1.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric series is one where each term is multiplied by a constant value known as r to get the next term

Sum of n terms of a geometric series is

\frac{a(r^n-1}{r-1},|r|>1\\\frac{1-r^2}{1-r},|r|

Sum of infinite series is obtained as the limiting value of this sum when n tends to infinity

We find that only when |r|<1, r power n tends to 0 as n tends to infinity.

Other r power n diverges.

Hence geometric series infinite sum formula is valid only when

|r|<1 since the series sum converges to a finite value

Soup was on a sale for 4 cans for 2.50. How much does one can of soup cost.
vodomira [7]

You know you have to divide, but you can't decide which way.

Use your units.  The answer will be (money) per (can of soup), so
you know you have to divide the money by the number of cans.

(If you divided (cans of soup) by (money) then the answer you get
would be (cans) per (dollar).  That's not what you need.)

                     (2.50)  /  (4 cans)

                 =  (2.50/4)  per can

                 =      0.625  per can  .
