Answer:

the magnitude of the error is 2.9959 × 10⁻⁹

Step-by-step explanation:

By Alternating series estimation theorem

\sum ^{\infty}_{n=1}(-1)^{n+1}a_n=a_1-a_2+a_3-a_4...+a_n is satisfies

(i) a_n +1\leq a_n for all n

(ii) \lim_{\rightarrow \infty}a_n=0

The formula for magnitude of error is

|R_n|=|s-s_n|\leq a_n+1

Let a_n = \frac{(0.08)^n}{n}

We can see \frac{(0.08)^n^+^1}{n} \leq \frac{(0,08)^n}{n}

For all n ∈ N

That means b_{n+1}\leq b_n for all   n ∈ N

\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}a_n=\lim(\frac{(0.08)^n}{n} )\\\\=\frac{(0.08)^{\infty}}{\infty}

\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}a_n =0

The alternating series estimation theorem is |R_s| = |s-s_n|\leq a_{n+1}

After stop adding the term with n = 6

the series tells that the error is smaller than the term with a

Therefore

a_7 = \frac{(0.08)^7}{7} \\\\= \frac{20.97152}{7} \times 10^-^9\\\\=2.9959\times10^-^9

the magnitude of the error is 2.9959 × 10⁻⁹

Negative 9 plus 2 over 3 plus open parentheses 1 plus 1 close parenthesis squared
Alik [6]

Answer:

⁻ \frac{19}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

⁻9 + \frac{2}{3} (1+1)^{2}

⁻9 + \frac{2}{3} × 2^{2}

⁻9 + \frac{2}{3} × 4

⁻9 + \frac{2 x 4}{3}

⁻9 + \frac{8}{3}

⁻ \frac{19}{3}

Two angles are complementary. The value of one angle is twice as that of the other one. Find the individual angle ​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles both add up to 90°. Therefore if one angle is twice the other, then if we divide 90 by 3 then we get 30. Two parts of 30 is 60 plus the other 30 and we get 90. The individual angle is 60°and the other is 30°
