Which of the following geometric series converges?

Artist 52 [7]

All three series converge, so the answer is D.

The common ratios for each sequence are (I) -1/9, (II) -1/10, and (III) -1/3.

Consider a geometric sequence with the first term a and common ratio |r| < 1. Then the n-th partial sum (the sum of the first n terms) of the sequence is

$S_n=a+ar+ar^2+\cdots+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}$

Multiply both sides by r :

$rS_n=ar+ar^2+ar^3+\cdots+ar^{n-1}+ar^n$

Subtract the latter sum from the first, which eliminates all but the first and last terms:

$S_n-rS_n=a-ar^n$

Solve for $S_n$ :

$(1-r)S_n=a(1-r^n)\implies S_n=\dfrac a{1-r}-\dfrac{ar^n}{1-r}$

Then as gets arbitrarily large, the term $r^n$ will converge to 0, leaving us with

$S=\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac a{1-r}$

So the given series converge to

(I) -243/(1 + 1/9) = -2187/10

(II) -1.1/(1 + 1/10) = -1

(III) 27/(1 + 1/3) = 18

Please help with this algebra question

We have
-2x-3y <12
For this case what you should do is to graph the following straight line:
-2x-3y = 12
Then, the solution will be the shaded region that satisfies the following inequality:
-2x-3y <12
In the shaded region you will find all the solution points.
