How to calculate the value of i=?

Mathematics
1 answer:
snow_lady [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

0.200

Step-by-step explanation:

∑ₓ₌₁⁴⁰ (1 + i)⁻ˣ = 5

∑ₓ₌₁⁴⁰ ((1 + i)⁻¹)ˣ = 5

This is a geometric series.  The sum of the first n terms of a geometric series is:

S = a₁ (1 − rⁿ) / (1 − r)

where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Here, a₁ = (1 + i)⁻¹, r = (1 + i)⁻¹, and n = 40.  For simplicity, let's write both a₁ and r in terms of r.  So a₁ = r and r = r.

5 = r (1 − r⁴⁰) / (1 − r)

5 (1 − r) = r (1 − r⁴⁰)

5 − 5r = r − r⁴¹

r⁴¹ − 6r + 5 = 0

Solving with a calculator, r ≈ 0.8334.

Therefore:

(1 + i)⁻¹ = 0.8334

1 + i = 1.200

i = 0.200

How do you use the properties of exponents and logarithms to rewrite functions in equivalent forms and solve equations
Leona [35]
Exponential:
 
It is called the exponential function of base a, to that whose generic form is f (x) = a ^ x, being a positive number other than 1.
 Every exponential function of the form f (x) = a^x, complies with the followingProperties:
 1. The function applied to the zero value is always equal to 1: f (0) = a ^ 0  = 1
 2. The exponential function of 1 is always equal to the base: f (1) = a ^ 1  = a.
 3. The exponential function of a sum of values is equal to the product of the application of said function on each value separately.
 f (m + n) = a ^ (m + n) = a ^ m · a ^ n
 = f (m) · f (n).
 4. The exponential function of a subtraction is equal to the quotient of its application to the minuend divided by the application to the subtrahend:
 f (p - q) = a ^ (p - q) = a ^ p / a ^ q
 Logarithm:
 
In the loga (b), a is called the base of the logarithm and b is called an argument, with a and b positive.
 Therefore, the definition of logarithm is:
 loga b = n ---> a ^ n = b (a> 0, b> 0)
