A) 2+b ≥ 2 ----> b ≥ 0

"b" may equal to 4.

B) 3b ≤ 14
for b=4 ; 12 ≤ 14 ---> It is true.
So "b" may equal to 4.

C) 8-b ≤ 15
8-15 ≤ b
-7 ≤ b
"b" may equal to 4.

D) b-3 ≥ 5
b ≥ 3+5
b ≥ 8
b cant equal to 4.

Find the sum of this infinite geometric series where a1=0.3 and r=0.1

ratelena [41]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for computing the sum of an infinite geometric series is

$S=\frac{a_1}{1-r}$ where r is between -1 and 1 and $r$ is the common ratio, and $a_1$ is the first term of the series.

So let's plug in:

$S=\frac{0.3}{1-0.1}$

$S=\frac{0.3}{0.9}$

$S=\frac{3}{9}$ I multiplied bottom and top by 10.

$S=\frac{1}{3}$ I divided top and bottom by 3.

The sum is 1/3.

A jet travels 2301 miles against the wind in 3 hours and 2811 miles with the wind in the same amount of time. What is the rate o

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The rate of the jet in still air is 852 miles per hour. The rate of the wind is 85 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that jet travels uniformly, that is, at constant speed, the expressions for its travels against the wind and with the wind are, respectively:

Against the wind

$v -u = \frac{\Delta x_{1}}{\Delta t_{1}}$

With the wind

$v +u = \frac{\Delta x_{2}}{\Delta t_{2}}$

Where:

$v$ - Speed of the jet in still air, measured in miles per hour.

$u$ - Speed of wind, measured in miles per hour.

$\Delta x_{1}$ , $\Delta x_{2}$ - Distances travelled by jet against the wind and with the wind, measured in miles.

$\Delta t_{1}$ , $\Delta t_{2}$ - Times against the wind and with the wind, measured in hours.

By adding both expressions:

$2\cdot v = \frac{\Delta x_{1}}{\Delta t_{1}}+\frac{\Delta x_{2}}{\Delta t_{2}}$

$v = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(\frac{\Delta x_{1}}{\Delta t_{1}} + \frac{\Delta x_{2}}{\Delta t_{2}} \right)$

Given that $\Delta x_{1} = 2301\,mi$ , $\Delta t_{1} = 3\,h$ , $\Delta x_{2} = 2811\,mi$ and $\Delta t_{2} = 3\,h$ , the speed of the jet is:

$v = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(\frac{2301\,mi}{3\,h}+\frac{2811\,mi}{3\,h} \right)$

$v = 852\,\frac{mi}{h}$

The rate of the jet in still air is 852 miles per hour.

Lastly, the rate of the wind is:

$u = \frac{\Delta x_{2}}{\Delta t_{2}}-v$

$u = \frac{2811\,mi}{3\,h}-852\,\frac{mi}{h}$

$u = 85\,\frac{mi}{h}$

The rate of the wind is 85 miles per hour.

21. 2n= 53 <br><br> Explanation of the division please, and how you got the answer

Ksju [112]

Answer:

2n= 53

and you divide both sides by 2

2n/2 =53/2

2 divided by 2 is 1 and 53 divided 2 is 26.5

n= 26.5
