Answer:
1st problem:
Converges to 6
2nd problem:
Converges to 504
Step-by-step explanation:
You are comparing to 
You want the ratio r to be between -1 and 1.
Both of these problem are so that means they both have a sum and the series converges to that sum.
The formula for computing a geometric series in our form is
where
is the first term.
The first term of your first series is 3 so your answer will be given by:

The second series has r=1/6 and a_1=420 giving me:
.
4/81 (?)
not sure if that is 100% correct
For the equation:
-1=5 x^2 - 2 x
5 x^2 - 2 x + 1 = 0, then we substitute: a=5, b=-2, c =1
to discriminant formula: D= b^2 - 4 a c = (-2)^2 - 4 * 5 * 1 = 4 - 20 = - 16
Answer:
The discriminant is equal to -16 which means the equation has no real number solutions.
The perimeter is 988 meters
Further explanation:
The given square has different length and breadth which means that the given square is a rectangle.
The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

Given
Length=L=256m
Breadth=W=238m
Putting the values in the formula:

The perimeter is 988 meters.
