Answer:
d. converges, -25
Step-by-step explanation:
An infinite geometric series converges if the absolute value of the common ratio is less than 1.
Here, the common ratio is 4/5:
| 4/5 | = 4/5 < 1
So the series converges. The sum of an infinite geometric series is:
S = a₁ / (1 − r)
where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Here, a₁ = -5 and r = 4/5:
S = -5 / (1 − 4/5)
S = -25
A millennium is a period of one thousand years
If you add the standard deviation to the average, it is 14.84. Because Marcus's score was lower than that, he will not receive a certificate.
I think this should be right for the reason and the calculation.
There are 3 because 12 divided by 4 is 3.
My teacher taught me a simple equation for these types of problems:
(percent of solution × amount of solution) + (percent of solution × amount of solution) = (percent of solution × total amount of solution)
in simple terms: %amount + %amount = %total amount
We know don't know how much gallons of 60% solution we need so it will be represented as x. We dont know the total amount either so it would have to be both solutions added together so 50 + x. Now lets solve:
(0.60)(x) + (0.24)(50) = (0.50)(50 + x) simplify/ distribute
0.6x + 12 = 25 +0.5x get all xs on one side and numbers on other
0.1x + 12 = 25
0.1x = 13 divide both sides by 0.1 to find x
x = 130
You need 130 gallons of 60% solution.
