If the geometric series has first term
and common ratio
, then its
-th partial sum is

Multiply both sides by
, then subtract
from
to eliminate all the middle terms and solve for
:



The
-th partial sum for the series of reciprocal terms (denoted by
) can be computed similarly:




We're given that
, and the sum of the first
terms of the series is

and the sum of their reciprocals is

By substitution,

Manipulating the
equation gives

so that substituting again yields

and it follows that

Answer:
~$0.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 10 with 5.99:
5.99/10 = 0.599
Round to the nearest hundredths.
0.599 rounded to the nearest hundredths = ~0.60
~$0.60 is the cost of one apple.
B is the answer. Because you have to turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions then subtract them. then convert it back into a mixed number
The answer is H, or x = 0.6.
