2x+10=0
subtract 10 from both sides
2x=(-10)
divide 2 from both sides
x=-5

Help 10 POINTS MATH IS NOT MY STRONG SUIT

Masja [62]

Answer:

infinite number of solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Work with the second equation. Subtract 8x from both sides.

- 4y + 8x - 8x = -8x - 12 Collect like terms.

-4y = - 8x - 12 Divide by - 4

-4y/-4 = - 8x/-4 - 12/-4

y = 2x + 3

That is exactly the same line as the first given. There is an infinite number of solutions.

Which statement is true about 7/10 and 2/6?

77julia77 [94]

Answer: The third answer

Step-by-step explanation:

7/10 is 0.7 and 2/6 is 0.33, 2/6 would be less than 1/2 because 1/2 is 0.5, 0.7 is greater than that benchmark

Determine whether the sequences converge.

Alik [6]

$a_n=\sqrt{\dfrac{(2n-1)!}{(2n+1)!}}$

Notice that

$\dfrac{(2n-1)!}{(2n+1)!}=\dfrac{(2n-1)!}{(2n+1)(2n)(2n-1)!}=\dfrac1{2n(2n+1)}$

So as $n\to\infty$ you have $a_n\to0$ . Clearly $a_n$ must converge.

The second sequence requires a bit more work.

$\begin{cases}a_1=\sqrt2\\a_n=\sqrt{2a_{n-1}}&\text{for }n\ge2\end{cases}$

The monotone convergence theorem will help here; if we can show that the sequence is monotonic and bounded, then $a_n$ will converge.

Monotonicity is often easier to establish IMO. You can do so by induction. When $n=2$ , you have

$a_2=\sqrt{2a_1}=\sqrt{2\sqrt2}=2^{3/4}>2^{1/2}=a_1$

Assume $a_k\ge a_{k-1}$ , i.e. that $a_k=\sqrt{2a_{k-1}}\ge a_{k-1}$ . Then for $n=k+1$ , you have

$a_{k+1}=\sqrt{2a_k}=\sqrt{2\sqrt{2a_{k-1}}\ge\sqrt{2a_{k-1}}=a_k$

which suggests that for all $n$ , you have $a_n\ge a_{n-1}$ , so the sequence is increasing monotonically.

Next, based on the fact that both $a_1=\sqrt2=2^{1/2}$ and $a_2=2^{3/4}$ , a reasonable guess for an upper bound may be 2. Let's convince ourselves that this is the case first by example, then by proof.

We have

$a_3=\sqrt{2\times2^{3/4}}=\sqrt{2^{7/4}}=2^{7/8}$
$a_4=\sqrt{2\times2^{7/8}}=\sqrt{2^{15/8}}=2^{15/16}$

and so on. We're getting an inkling that the explicit closed form for the sequence may be $a_n=2^{(2^n-1)/2^n}$ , but that's not what's asked for here. At any rate, it appears reasonable that the exponent will steadily approach 1. Let's prove this.

Clearly, $a_1=2^{1/2}$ . Let's assume this is the case for $n=k$ , i.e. that $a_k$ . Now for $n=k+1$ , we have

$a_{k+1}=\sqrt{2a_k}$

and so by induction, it follows that $a_n$ for all $n\ge1$ .

Therefore the second sequence must also converge (to 2).
