$Inside\ each\ packet\ he\ used\ the\ greatest\ amount\ of\ mint\ sweets,\\so\ we\ can\ focus\ only\ on\ it.\\\\We\ should\ divide\ all\ of\ mint\ sweets\ by\ one\ packet\ amount:\\\\500:10=50\\\\He\ can\ make\ 50\ packets\ of\ this\ type.$

2 (Picture) CONVERGENT AND DIVERGENT SERIES PLEASE HELP!!

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

This series is divergent

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a series

Firstly, we will find nth term

Numerator:

3, 4, 5,...

so, nth term will be

$a_n=n+3$

Denominator:

4,5,6,....

so, nth term will be

$b_n=n+4$

so, we can find it's nth term as

$c_n=\frac{n+3}{n+4}$

we can use divergent test

$\lim_{n \to \infty} c_n=\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n+3}{n+4}$

we can divide top and bottom by n

$\lim_{n \to \infty} c_n= \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n/n+3/n}{n/n+4/n}$

$\lim_{n \to \infty} c_n= \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1+3/n}{1+4/n}$

now, we can plug n=inf

$\lim_{n \to \infty} c_n= \frac{1+0}{1+0}$

$\lim_{n \to \infty} c_n=1$

Since, it is non-zero value

so, this series is divergent

Tree pruning company A charges a one-time $100 equipment fee and charges $50 for each tree that it prunes. Tree pruning company

kobusy [5.1K]

The total cost that a customer should incur in its dealings with company A should be,
c = 50t + 100
For company B
c = 60t + 80
Equating these two charges
c = 50t + 100 = 60t + 80
Thus, the answer is the fourth choice.
