If

denotes the sum of the first

terms of a geometric series with first term

and common ratio

, then





Using summation notation, you have

In this case, you have

,

, and

. So the value of the sum is

Rounded to the nearest whole number, the answer would be 3.
Answer:
7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 120 bags. 64 of them in total do not contain buttons.
120 - 64 = 56
You have 56 bags with buttons. The simple answer is,
56/120
You can simplify this down to 7/15
If you're looking for percent, the answer is 46.67%
This is a fairly easy half-life problem
Each half-life reduces the radioactive material by one half.
So after 72 hours the radioactive material would have undergone 6 half-lives.
2^6 = 64.
So, there will be one sixty-fourth of the material left.
520 / 64 = 8.125 grams will remain.
radioactive decay is an exponential decay function.

Answer:
48 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5x + y = -48
Step-by-step explanation:
