Solve for the variable b. 5a(b - c ) = d

We have to isolate b using inverse operations.

5a(b - c) = d
Simplify using Distributive Property.
5ab - 5ac = d
Add 5ac to both sides.
5ab = d + 5ac
Divide both sides by 5a.
b = 5ac + d / 5a

For the following telescoping series, find a formula for the nth term of the sequence of partial sums
gtnhenbr [62]

I'm guessing the sum is supposed to be

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}

Split the summand into partial fractions:

\dfrac1{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac a{5k-1}+\dfrac b{5k+4}

1=a(5k+4)+b(5k-1)

If k=-\frac45, then

1=b(-4-1)\implies b=-\frac15

If k=\frac15, then

1=a(1+4)\implies a=\frac15

This means

\dfrac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac2{5k-1}-\dfrac2{5k+4}

Consider the nth partial sum of the series:

S_n=2\left(\dfrac14-\dfrac19\right)+2\left(\dfrac19-\dfrac1{14}\right)+2\left(\dfrac1{14}-\dfrac1{19}\right)+\cdots+2\left(\dfrac1{5n-1}-\dfrac1{5n+4}\right)

The sum telescopes so that

S_n=\dfrac2{14}-\dfrac2{5n+4}

and as n\to\infty, the second term vanishes and leaves us with

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac17

Answer:

  a) CP = SP/1.1

  b) CP = $59.50

  c) GST = $5.95

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Divide by the coefficient of CP.

  SP = 1.1×CP

  CP = SP/1.1

__

b) Use the formula with the given value.

  CP = $65.45/1.1 = $59.50

__

c) You can do this two ways: subtract CP from SP, or multiply CP by 0.1.

  GST = SP -CP = $65.45 -59.50 = $5.95

  GST = CP×0.10 = $59.50 × 0.10 = $5.95
