Answer:
364/27
Step-by-step explanation:
9, 3, 1, ... is a geometric sequence with common ratio r = 1/3.
The nth term is a1rn-1.
If a1rn-1 = 1/27, then 9(1/3)n-1 = 1/27
32(3-1)n-1 = 3-3
3231-n = 3-3
33-n = 3-3
3-n = -3
n = 6
The sum, Sn, of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is given by Sn = a1(1 - rn) / (1 - r).
So, 9 + 3 + 1 + ... + 1/27 = S6 = 9(1 - (1/3)6) / (1 - 1/3)
= 9(1 - 1/729) / (2/3)
= (27/2)(728/729) = 364/27
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
You didn't give the options relating to the question.
To solve this first, you need to know that we have to note that (+) × (-) = (-). Therefore, 1.25+(-0.75) will be thesame as writing 1.25 - 0.75. This will then be:
= 1.25 - 0.75
= 0.50
Answer:
x²-8x-1=0
comparing above equation with ax²+bx+c=0
a=1
b=-8
c=-1
x=
=(--8+-√(64-4×1×-1)/2×1
=8+-√(64+4)/2
taking positive
x=(8+√68)/2=2(4+√17)/2=4+√17
taking negative
x=(8-√68)/2=2(4-√17)/2=4-√17
