Answer:
Given the series,
∑ ∞ n = 1 − 4 ( − 1 / 2 ) n − 1
I think the series is summation from n = 1 to ∞ of -4(-1/2)^(n-1)
So,
∑ − 4 ( − ½ )^(n − 1). From n = 1 to ∞
There are different types of test to show if a series converges or diverges
So, using Ratio test
Lim n → ∞ (a_n+1 / a_n)
Lim n → ∞ (-4(-1/ 2)^(n+1-1) / -4(-1/2)^(n-1))
Lim n → ∞ ((-4(-1/2)^(n) / -4(-1/2)^(n-1))
Lim n → ∞ (-1/2)ⁿ / (-1/2)^(n-1)
Lim n→ ∞ (-1/2)^(n-n+1)
Lim n→ ∞ (-1/2)^1 = -1/2
Since the limit is less than 0, then, the series converge...
Sum to infinity
Using geometric progression formula
S∞ = a / 1 - r
Where
a is first term
r is common ratio
So, first term is
a_1 = -4(-½)^1-1 = -4(-½)^0 = -4 × 1
a_1 = -4
Common ratio r = a_2 / a_1
a_2 = 4(-½)^2-1 = -4(-½)^1 = -4 × -½ = 2
a_2 = 2
Then,
r = a_2 / a_1 = 2 / -4 = -½
S∞ = -4 / 1--½
S∞ = -4 / 1 + ½
S∞ = -4 / 3/2 = -4 × 2 / 3
S∞ = -8 / 3 = -2⅔
The sum to infinity is -2.67 or -2⅔

Step-by-step explanation: PHEW THAT TOOK A WHILE LOL IM A FAST TYPER</h2>
Here, angle (3x-1) is supplementary with 5x, so their sum would be equal to 180
3x - 1 + 5x = 180
8x = 180 + 1
x = 181/8
x = 22.625
Hope this helps!

Explanation / when you multiply 7 by -9 you get -63
The plant grow 3.6 centimeter in 18 days and the student written it incorrectly as 1.44 days.
Division:
Division is the process of breaking a number up into equal parts, and finding out how many equal parts can be made. It is a reverse process of multiplication.
Given:
The ratio of growth for a plant is 0.2 centimeters per 0.5 day.
A student found the number of days for the plant to grow 3.6 centimeters to be 1.44 days.
Here we have to verify if the student is found the correct value or not.
For one day the plant grow 0.2 centimeter.
So, for 3.6 centimeter it will take
=> 3.6 / 0.2
=> 18
So, for 3.6 centimeter it will take 18 days.
So, here the student written it incorrectly as 1.44 days.
