Answer:

<h2>A. The series CONVERGES</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If \sum a_n is a series, for the series to converge/diverge according to ratio test, the following conditions must be met.

\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n}| = \rho

If \rho < 1, the series converges absolutely

If \rho > 1, the series diverges

If \rho = 1, the test fails.

Given the series \sum\left\ {\infty} \atop {1} \right \frac{n^2}{5^n}

To test for convergence or divergence using ratio test, we will use the condition above.

a_n = \frac{n^2}{5^n} \\a_n_+_1 = \frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}}

\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} =  \frac{{\frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}}}}{\frac{n^2}{5^n} }\\\\ \frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = {{\frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}} * \frac{5^n}{n^2}\

\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = {{\frac{(n^2+2n+1)}{5^n*5^1}} * \frac{5^n}{n^2}\\

aₙ₊₁/aₙ =

\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{ n^2+2n+1}{5n^2}| \\\\Dividing\ through\ by \ n^2\\\\\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{ n^2/n^2+2n/n^2+1/n^2}{5n^2/n^2}|\\\\\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{1+2/n+1/n^2}{5}|\\\\

note that any constant dividing infinity is equal to zero

|\frac{1+2/\infty+1/\infty^2}{5}|\\\\

\frac{1+0+0}{5}\\ = 1/5

\rho = 1/5

Since The limit of the sequence given is less than 1, hence the series converges.

Answer:

x² + 18x +81

x² - 14x +49

4x²- 4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the x in the first parentheses by x and 9 in the other parentheses and

multiply the 9 in the first parentheses by x and 9 in the other parentheses and add all together

(x+9)(x+9)

x² + 9x + 9x + 81

x² + 18x +81

multiply the x in the first parentheses by x and -7 in the other parentheses and multiply the -7 in the first parentheses by x and -7 in the other parentheses and add all together

(x-7)(x-7)

x² -7x - 7x +49

x² - 14x +49

(2x-1)² is the same as (2x-1)(2x-1)

multiply the 2x in the first parentheses by 2x and -1 in the other parentheses and multiply the -1 in the first parentheses by 2x and -1 in the other parentheses and add all together

(2x-1)(2x-1)

4x²-2x-2x+1

4x²- 4x - 1

Answer:

1) 500     2) $ 1000 debt    3) $350    4) $2500 debt

Step-by-step explanation:

profit = .5x -250  

1)  O      = .5x -250

250 = .5x

500 = x      number to break even

2)   f(900) =  .5 (900) -250 =  $200

       from the graph  g(200) = total debt = $1000

3)   f(x) = -75  = .5x-250    results in    x = $ 350

4)    f(500) = .5(500) - 250 = 0  

      from the graph, this corresponds to total debt g (f(500) = $2500 debt

Beto has $12 to put gas in his car if gas cost 3.75 per gallon which ordered pair of lading number of gas to the total cost of g
Firdavs [7]

Given :

Total money Beto have , P = $12 .

Cost per gallon , c = $3.75 .

To Find :

Ordered pair of lading number of gas to the total cost of gas includes the greatest amount of gas she can buy .

Solution :

Now , number of gallons she can buy for $12 is :

Units =\dfrac{12}{3.75}\ gallon\\\\Units = 3.2\ gallons

So , the greatest amount of gas she can buy with $10 is 3.2 gallons .

Therefore , the ordered pair is ( 3.2 , 12 ) .

Hence , this is the required solution .
