1/3 + 1/2 = 2/6 + 3/6 = 5/6

5/6 - 1/5 = 25/30 - 6/30 = 19/30 pounds left

You have 2 positive numbers. one number is one-fifth of the other number. the difference between the two numbers is 192, find th

otez555 [7]

<span>x-y=192 or x=192+y
y=x/5 now replace y with (x/5) in the first equation & solve for x
x=192+x/5
x-x/5=192
4x/5=192 cross multily
4x=5*192
4x=960</span>

If the series is convergent, use the Alternating Series Estimation Theorem to determine how many terms we need to add in order t

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Number of terms required is 5 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the series: $\sum\imits^{\infty}_{n=0}\frac{(-1)^n}{5^nn!}$

Given the series is an alternating series,

$b_n=\frac{1}{5^nn!}$

Evaluating the limit: $\lim_{n \to \infty} b_n= \lim_{n \to \infty} (\frac{1}{5^nn!})=\frac{1}{\infty}=0$

Since $\lim_{n \to \infty} b_n =0 \,\, and \,\, b_{n+1}\leq b_n$ for all n = the series is convergent

The error of an alternating series $\sum b_n$ is bounded as

$|R_n|\leq b_{n+1}$

Given $b_n = \frac{1}{5^n n!}=b_{n+1}=\frac{1}{5^{n+1}(n+1)!}200000$

By trial and error: the above equation is satisfied for $n=4$

Since the given series starts at n = 0, the number of terms required is 5 terms
