Firstly look at the options carefully and we will get to know that two answer options are incorrect because 2 of them are representing AT MOST SIGN which we don't need. So in that way Options B and D are eliminated.
So Now we are left with 2 options A and C. Lets figure it out.
We know that Carlos has 5 complete set with 4 individual figures and josh has 3 complete sets with 14 individual figures.
So lets write in the numerical language:-
let us assume that complete sets are X.
ATQ,
5x + 4 ≥ 3x + 14
subtracting 3x from both sides.
5x -3x + 4 ≥ 14
2x + 4 ≥ 14
subtracting 4 from both sides
2x ≥ 14 - 4
2x ≥ 10
dividing both sides by 2
x ≥ 5 Answer
So correct answer option is C
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the formula to find the sum of a finite geometric series is:
Where is the number of terms, is the first term and is the common ratio ().
The steps to find the sum of the first 12 terms of the given geometric serie, are:
1. Find the common ratio "r". By definition:
Then:
2. Finally, knowing that:
You must substitute values into the formula.
Then you get:
