Answer:

The sum of first seven term of series is 4372.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the sum of first seven term of given series

Given series is 4, 12, 36, 108,

we can see the pattern of series is each new term is multiplied by 3 with previous term.

4, 12, 36, 108,

This is in the form of geometric series

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio r and is defined by a_n=a_0\cdot r^{n-1}

where r=3

\mathrm{The\:first\:element\:of\:the\:sequence\:is} a_1=4

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:}n\mathrm{th\:term\:is\:computed\:by}\:

r=3,\:a_n=4\cdot \:3^{n-1}

so, 4, 12, 36, 108, 324, 972, 2916,..

\mathrm{Geometric\:sequence\:sum\:formula:}

a_1\frac{1-r^n}{1-r}

\mathrm{Plug\:in\:the\:values:}

=4\cdot \frac{1-3^7}{1-3}=4372

Therefore, the sum of first seven term of series is 4372.

The numbers are multiplying by 3 each time. For example 4x3=12. 12x3=36 so you would add 4+12+36+108+324+972+2916 = 4373

Answer:

Predicted value YHat is a symbol used to represent the predicted equation for a line of best fit in a linear regression. The equation usually take the form of 'a' as the y- intercept and 'b' as the slope of the graph. It is calculated from estimated regression equations for the line of best fit.

Find the quotient. Write your answer in simplest form.<br><br> 1/3 ÷ 6= 1/18?
Anna007 [38]
If you would like to solve 1/3 / 6, you can do this using the following steps:

1/3 / 6 = 1/3 / 6/1 = 1/3 * 1/6 = 1/18

The correct result would be 1/18.

Answer:

  9.  ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6

  11.  ±1, ±2, ±3, ±4, ±6, ±12

Step-by-step explanation:

The possible rational roots are (plus or minus) the divisors of the constant term, divided by the divisors of the leading coefficient.

Here, the leading coefficient is 1 in each case, so the possible rational roots are plus or minus a divisor of the constant term.

__

9. The constant is -6. Divisors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, 6. The possible rational roots are ...

  ±{1, 2, 3, 6}

__

11. The constant is 12. Divisors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12. The possible rational roots are ...

  ±{1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12}

_____

A graphing calculator is useful for seeing if any of these values actually are roots of the equation. (The 4th-degree equation will have 2 complex roots.)
