Answer:
a) -7/9
b) 16 / (n² + 15n + 56)
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
When n = 1, there is only one term in the series, so a₁ = s₁.
a₁ = (1 − 8) / (1 + 8)
a₁ = -7/9
The sum of the first n terms is equal to the sum of the first n−1 terms plus the nth term.
sₙ = sₙ₋₁ + aₙ
(n − 8) / (n + 8) = (n − 1 − 8) / (n − 1 + 8) + aₙ
(n − 8) / (n + 8) = (n − 9) / (n + 7) + aₙ
aₙ = (n − 8) / (n + 8) − (n − 9) / (n + 7)
If you wish, you can simplify by finding the common denominator.
aₙ = [(n − 8) (n + 7) − (n − 9) (n + 8)] / [(n + 8) (n + 7)]
aₙ = [n² − n − 56 − (n² − n − 72)] / (n² + 15n + 56)
aₙ = 16 / (n² + 15n + 56)
The infinite sum is:
∑₁°° aₙ = lim(n→∞) sₙ
∑₁°° aₙ = lim(n→∞) (n − 8) / (n + 8)
∑₁°° aₙ = 1
12 toys. Dividing 15 by 60 equals 4 so 4 tots in a hour. Then multiple the 4 toys an hour by 3 hours.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
OS ≅ OU, so we will set those 2 expressions equal to each other and solve for y:
6y = 42 so
y = 7
Same goes for OT and OV:
x + 5 = 23 so
x = 18 and
SU = 84
The total number of beads that Lexi could accommodate based
on the on hand items is 101 beads. Subtract the number of beads she needs which
is 144 beads with 101 beads. The amount of beads that would need a box is 43
beads. Since a medium box could only accommodate 10 beads at a time, divide 43
with 10 and the answer would be 4 remainder 3. Thus Lexi would only need 4
medium boxes.
