1 cup = 8 fluid
So 144 fluid = 144/8 = 16 cups
So 16 cups candle moles she can fill with the recipe.

What is the sum of the geometric series

lbvjy [14]

If $S$ denotes the sum of the first $n$ terms of a geometric series with first term $a$ and common ratio $r$ , then

$S=a+ar+ar^2+\cdots+ar^{n-3}+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}$
$rS=ar+ar^2+ar^3+\cdots+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}+ar^n$
$\implies S-rS=a+(ar-ar)+(ar^2-ar^2)+\cdots+(ar^{n-1}-ar^{n-1})-ar^n$
$\implies (1-r)S=a(1-r^n)$
$\implies S=a=\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r}$

Using summation notation, you have

$S=\displaystyle\sum_{x=1}^nar^{x-1}=\sum_{x=0}^{n-1}ar^x=a\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r}$

In this case, you have $a=2$ , $r=\dfrac12$ , and $n=16$ . So the value of the sum is

$\displaystyle\sum_{x=0}^{15}2\left(\frac14\right)^x=2\dfrac{1-\left(\frac14\right)^{16}}{1-\frac14}\approx2.67$

Rounded to the nearest whole number, the answer would be 3.

I have 5 digits. My 9 is worth 9 ∗ 10,000. My 2 is worth 2 thousand. One of my 7s is worth 70. The other is worth 10 times as mu

Natasha2012 [34]

The answer is 92,776 because 10 times as much as 70 is 700 which gives the answer for the hundreds position.
