Answer:
4. 0 + 1 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
since 2/9 is a bit small
and
since 10/11 is almost whole
The answer is 56 cookies because i did math in my head
The first term is 2 and the 20th term is 1048576 .
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , If the sum of the first 12 terms of a geometric series is 8190 and the common ratio is 2. We need to Find the first term and the 20th term. Let's find out:
We know that Sum of a GP is :
⇒
So ,Sum of first 12 terms is :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Now , nth term of a GP is
⇒ 
So , 20th term is :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore , the first term is 2 and the 20th term is 1048576 .
Kate: Please, for clarity, use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: 2x^2 + x − 4 = 0
And please include the instructions.
2x^2 + x − 4 = 0 can be re-written: 2(x^2 + (1/2)x - 2) = 0
Dividing both sides by 2 results in x^2 + (1/2)x - 2 = 0
Let's "complete the square:" x^2 + (1/2)x + (1/4)^2 - (1/4)^2 = 0
Then (x+(1/4))^2 = (1/4)^2
Taking the sqrt of both sides: x+1/4 = plus or minus 1/4
Solving for x: x = -1/4 plus or minus 1/4
Solving for x (continued): x = 0 and x = -1/2
