Geometric series are in the form of

Where a is the first term and r is the common ratio .
And it is given that




r=-3,2
So the first five terms are

= 2-6+18-54+162 or 2+4+8+16+32
= 122 or 62
Answer:
3645 rabbits after 6 months.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.
This means that the population of the colony after t months is given by:

In which P(0) is the initial population.
The population started with 5 rabbits.
This means that 
So

How many rabbits are there after 6 months?
This is P(6). So

3645 rabbits after 6 months.
Answer:
d≈91.63m
Step-by-step explanation:
d=w2+l2=78.92+46.62≈91.63389m
Answer:
The integral for the arc of length is:
By using Simpon’s rule we get: 1.5355453
And using technology we get: 2.3020
The approximation is about 33% smaller than the exact result.
Explanation:
The formula for the length of arc of the function f(x) in the interval [a,b] is:
We need the derivative of the function:
And we need it squared:
Then the integral is:
Now, the Simposn’s rule with n=4 is:
In this problem:
So, the Simposn’s rule formula becomes:
Then simplifying a bit:
Then we just do those computations and we finally get the approximation via Simposn's rule:
While when we do the integral by using technology we get: 2.3020.
The approximation with Simpon’s rule is close but about 33% smaller:
