SA=2(lw+wh+lh) This is the formula for finding the surface area of a rectangular prism, where SA is surface area, l is length, w is width, and h is height.
208=2(lw+wh+lh)
104=lw+wh+lh Here, I divided both sides by 2 to get ride of the 2.
Now, I used prime factorization to find out all the prime factors of 104, which are 2, 2, 2, and 13. Since rectangular prisms only have 3 dimensions, I needed to combine two of the prime factors. In this case, I can either combine 2 of the 2s to get 2, 4, and 13 or I can combine 13 with one of the 2s to get 26, 2, and 2.
If my dimensions were 2, 4, and 13...
my surface area would be 172 sq cm.
If my dimensions were 2, 2, and 26...
my surface area would be 208 sq cm.
Hence, the width of the rectangular prism when the surface area is 208 square centimeters can be either 2 or 26.
There would be a 10% chance that they would have the same birthday
You can round 15 to 20, and 8 to 10
7+8= 15 so the second answer
Answer:
The series is absolutely convergent.
Step-by-step explanation:
By ratio test, we find the limit as n approaches infinity of
|[a_(n+1)]/a_n|
a_n = (-1)^(n - 1).(3^n)/(2^n.n^3)
a_(n+1) = (-1)^n.3^(n+1)/(2^(n+1).(n+1)^3)
[a_(n+1)]/a_n = [(-1)^n.3^(n+1)/(2^(n+1).(n+1)^3)] × [(2^n.n^3)/(-1)^(n - 1).(3^n)]
= |-3n³/2(n+1)³|
= 3n³/2(n+1)³
= (3/2)[1/(1 + 1/n)³]
Now, we take the limit of (3/2)[1/(1 + 1/n)³] as n approaches infinity
= (3/2)limit of [1/(1 + 1/n)³] as n approaches infinity
= 3/2 × 1
= 3/2
The series is therefore, absolutely convergent, and the limit is 3/2
