so basically we only use the associative property of multiplication and one of the laws of exponents

associative=a(bc)=(ab)c
also law of exponent=a^x times a^y=a^(x+y)

(3.6 times 10^2) times (2.8 times 10^2)
associative
3.6 times 10^3 times 2.8 times 10^2
3.6 times 2.8 times 10^2 times 10^2
law of exponents
10^2 times 10^2=10^(2+2)=10^4
3.6 times 2.8=10.08
the answer is 10.08 times 10^4 or (10.08*10^4) or (1.001*10^5)

the second one


(3.6 times 10^6) times (2.2 times 10^-4)
associative
3.6 times 10^6 times 2.2 times 10^-4
3.6 times 2.2 times 10^6 times 10^-4
law of exponents
10^6 times 10^-4=10^(6-4)=10^2
3.6 times 2.2=7.92
the answer is 7.92 times 10^2 or (7.92*10^2)


A is (1.001*10^5)
 B is (7.92*10^2)

The sum of an infinite geometric series is three times the first term. Find the common ratio of this series.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an infinite geometric series is expressed according to the formula;

$S_\infty = \dfrac{a}{1-r}$ where;

a is the first term of the series

r is the common ratio

If the sum of an infinite geometric series is three times the first term, this is expressed as $S_\infty = 3a$

Substitute $S_\infty = 3a$ into the formula above to get the common ratio r;

$3a = \dfrac{a}{1-r} \\\\$

$cross \ multiply\\\\3a(1-r) = a\\\\3(1-r) = 1\\$

open the parenthesis

$3 - 3r = 1\\\\$

subtract 3 from both sides

$3 - 3r -3= 1-3\\\\-3r = -2\\\\r = \frac{2}{3}$

Hence the common ratio of this series is $\frac{2}{3}$

A student is applying to Harvard and Dartmouth. If the student is accepted at Dartmouth, the probability of being accepted at Ha

adell [148]

I made a probability tree. Pls. see attachment.

Based on the probability tree I made, below are the probabilities

Probability of a student accepted at both Dartmouth and Harvard is:
50% x 40% = 20%

Probability of a student accepted at Dartmouth but not Harvard is:
50% x 60% = 30%

Probability of a student not accepted at Dartmouth but accepted in Harvard is:
50% x 20% = 10%

Probability of a student not accepted in both schools is:
50% x 80% = 40%

As you can see, these probabilities total 100%
