Use the formula to evaluate the series 3-9+27-81+...-a8

1 answer:

6 0

In the given series, we see that the first term is 3 and the common ratio between the succeeding terms is -3. To solve for the sum of the first 8 terms, we use the equation,

Sum = (a1)(1 – r^n) / (1 – r)

Substituting the known terms,

Sum = (3)(1 – (-3)^8)/(1 - -3) = -4920

<span>Thus, the answer is -4920.</span>

5 STARS!!!

Since it is given that Boris takes x minutes to run 5 miles it means that Boris' speed will be given as: $\frac{5}{x}$ .

Now, if Dylan runs slower than Boris and takes 12 more minutes to complete the 5 miles run, then that would mean that Dylan takes (x+12) minutes to complete the same run.

In this case we can see the Dylan's speed will be $\frac{5}{x+12}$ .

Thus, the denominator represents the time Dylan takes to run 5 miles if he takes 12 minutes more than Boris.

Therefore, out of the given options, the second option is the correct option.

The sum of all the probabilities of outcomes of an event is equal to 1

2. A die has 1,2,3,4,5,6

P(4) = number of 4's/ total numbers

= 1/6

Multiply the number of roll's by the probability of getting a 4

100 *1/6 = 50/3 = 16 2/3

This is approximately 17
