The terms will be 3, 9, 27, 81 and so on.

notice, to get the next term, we simply multiply the current one by 3, namely the "common ratio" r = 3.

to make it plain and short, if 0 < | r | < 1, then the series sum will diverge, namely is approaching an explicit value, instead of just going on and on to infinity.

0 < | r | < 1, namely, if the common ratio is between 0 and 1, well a fraction, either negative or positive, only then the serie sum will diverge.  In this case is 3 and 3 is definitely not a fraction in that range.

Answer: The series diverges, and it does not have a sum.

a machine can reduce 21 inches of ribbon every 3 minutes. How many feet of ribbon can the machine make in one hour?
Zarrin [17]
Okay. Let's make a proportion for this. So we can do 21/3=x/60. Let's multiply cross way. So 21 x 60 is 1260. We multiply 3 by x to get 3x. So our equation will be 3x=1260. We can isolate the equation by 3, and 1260 divided by 3 is 420. So x=420. We then have to convert into feet. So 420 divided by 12 is 35. So it would be 35 feet. Therefore, the machine can make 35feet of ribbon in a hour.

The paragraph below comes from the rental agreement Susan signed when she opened her account at Super Video.
Effectus [21]
B) it will cost about the same to keep the movie or to return it; she should keep it.

5 days' worth of late fees would be 5(1.50) = 7.50.
The purchase price is 9.99; 9.99+7.50 = 17.49.

If she gets a cab, she pays around $10 round trip; 10 + 7.50 = 17.50

It is roughly the same price.
