When you multiply fractions, you multiply across, right? so, for example 5/7 times 4/9 will give you 20/63. So, if you do this to this problem, you will have abcd/bcde. but now you are able to cancel out the b and c and d. think of it like reducing. 5/10 is 1/2. Why? because if you reduce/factor out a 5, you get a 1 in the numerator and a 2 in the denominator. same thing here; you can factor out a b, c, and d(because they show up in both num. and denom. so what you are left with is a/e. Cheers!

What is the sum of the geometric series 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^4 + … + 2^9?
mars1129 [50]
The nth term is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
an=1(2)^(n-1)
a1=1
r=2

the sum of a geometric seequence is
S_{n}=\frac{a_{1}(1-r^{n})}{1-r}
a1=1
r=2
we want to find S_{10} (since we minus 1, the highest exponet is 9 so add 1 to make it correct)

S_{10}=\frac{1(1-2^{10})}{1-2}
S_{10}=\frac{(1-1024}{-1}
S_{10}=\frac{(-1023}{-1}
S_{10}=1023

The radius of a circle is 2 centimeters. What is the circles circumference?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: 4π cm or 12.56 cm

Step-by-step explanation: To find the circumference of this circle, start with the formula for the circumference of a circle which is C = 2πr.

Since the radius is 2 centimeters, we can

plug in 2 centimeters for <em>r</em> in the formula.

So we have (2)(π)(2 cm) which is equal to 4π cm.

So the circumference of this circle is 4π cm.

Remember that π is approximately equal to 22/7 or 3.14 so we can estimate the value of the circumference by plugging in 3.14 for π.

So we have (4)(3.14) which is equal to 12.56.

So the circumference of the circle is

approximately equal to 12.56 cm.
