Use algebra to simplify the expression before evaluating the limit. In particular, factor the highest power of n from the numera

bija089 [108]

Answer:

a) {2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

b) 9/8

c) The sequence converges

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the limit of the function

limn→[infinity]2−7n+9n²/8n²+2n−6

To simplify the function given, we will have to factor out the highest power of n which is n² from the numerator and the denominator. The function will then become;

2−7n+9n²/8n²+2n−6

= n²{2/n²-7/n+9}/n²{8+2/n-6/n²}

The n² at the numerator will then cancel out the n² at the denominator to have resulting simplified equation as;

{2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

Evaluating the limit of the resulting equation will give;

limn→[infinity] {2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

Note that limn→[infinity] a/n = 0 where a is any constant.

Therefore;

limn→[infinity] {2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

= (0-0+9)/(8+0-0)

= 9/8

Since the limit of the sequence gives a finite value which is 9/8, thus the sequence in question is a convergent sequence.

The limit of a sequence only diverges if the limit of such sequence is an infinite value.

Invest $6,300 in two different accounts the first account paid 11% the second account paid 6% in interest at the end of the year

MAVERICK [17]

Answer: he invested $5300 at 11% and $1000 at 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which he invested in the first account paying 11% interest.

Let y represent the amount which he invested in the second account paying 6% interest.

He Invest $6,300 in two different accounts the first account paid 11% the second account paid 6% in interest. This means that

x + y = 6300

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Considering the first account paying 11% interest,

P = $x

T = 1 year

R = 11℅

I = (x × 11 × 1)/100 = 0.11x

Considering the second account paying 6% interest,

P = $y

T = 1 year

R = 6℅

I = (y × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.06y

At the end of the year, he had earned $643 in interest , it means that

0.11x + 0.06y = 643 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 6300 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.11(6300 - y) + 0.06y = 643

693 - 0.11y + 0.06y = 643

- 0.11y + 0.06y = 643 - 693

- 0.05y = - 50

y = - 50/ - 0.05

y = 1000

x = 6300 - y = 6300 - 1000

x = 5300

Calculate the angle of depression from the

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

angle of depression ≈ 53.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle of depression is the measure of the angle from the horizontal downwards from the top of the flag pole.

this angle is alternate to ∠ A and is congruent to ∠ A

using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin A = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{25}{31}$ , then

∠ A = $sin^{-1}$ ( $\frac{25}{31}$ ) ≈ 53.8° ( to 1 d.p )

Angle of depression ≈ 53.8°
