I need help finding this sigma-notation sum. I'm not quite sure what to do with the exponent, I have determined a1 = 12, a2=36,

a3=108, and a4=324. I notice the pattern of multiplying by 3 each segment, but I'm struggling how to equate this to a form that is simple enough to call an answer.3^{k}

I have added a₀ to reach the logic of your formula (and a₀ responds perfectly to the pattern 

a₀ = 4 =  4 x 1 = 4 x 3⁰

a₁ = 12 = 4x3 = 4 x 3¹

a₂ = 36 = 4 x 9 = 4 x 3²

a₃ =108 = 4 x 27 = 4 x 3³

a₄ = 324 = 4 x 81 = 4 x 3⁴

a(n) ==========4 x 3ⁿ

ⁿ
Σ 4 x 3^(k-1)
k=1

In short you just multiply 0.480.48 by the amount of miles you drive add that to 24.9024.90 and you get you total
for example: if you take the first company if you drive 200 miles per day it will cost you 24.9024.90 with an extra 96.096 wich will add up to 120.99849 in total per day

PLAYSTOP6The volume of the solid iscubic feet. Use the formula V = Bh. All angles are 90°.9 ft.6 ft.ft.3 ft.2 ft.2ft.
ira [324]

Volumen of A Solid

Given a solid with a shape of a constant base B and height H, the volume is:

V = BH

The height of the solid is 1 1/4 ft. We need to calculate the area of the base.

The base consists of a larger rectangle from which has been taken a smaller rectangle.

The larger rectangle has dimensions of 9 ft by 6 ft, thus its area is:

A1 = 9 ft * 6 ft = 54 square ft

The smaller rectangle has dimensions of 2 1/2 ft by 4 ft.

The second dimension was calculated as the difference between 9 ft and 2 ft plus 3 ft. (9 ft - 3 ft - 2 ft = 4 ft).

The area of the smaller rectangle is:

A2 = 2 1/2 * 4

The mixed fraction 2 1/2 is converted to improper fraction:

2 1/2 = 2 + 1/2 = 5/2

Thus, the area is:

A2 = 5/2 * 4

A2 = 10 square feet

The area of the base is A1 - A2 = 54 square feet - 10 square feet = 44 square feet

B = 44 square feet.

Now for the volume:

V = 44 square feet * 1 1/4 feet

Again the mixed fraction is converted to a single fraction:

1 1/4 = 1 + 1/4 = 5/4

V = 44 square feet * 5/4 feet

V = 55 cubic feet
