Since this is the formula for the infinite geometric series with
a1 = 42
r = 3/4

Solution will be

sum = 42 / 1-3/4
sum = 42 / 0.25
sum = 168

Therefore, the total is 168

Answer: the answer is D


Step-by-step explanation: We can immediately eliminate options A and B because they aren’t even formatted properly. The common ratio(3/4) ALWAYS comes after a_1 which in this case was 42. That leaves us with C and D. Now, for series to be divergent, the common ratio(number in parentheses) HAS to be GREATER than one. Since this equation has 3/4 or .75 in the parentheses it is NOT divergent. That leaves us with answer choice D, and the answer is 168. My friend above explains how to get to that answer. Thanks and please rate.

To answer this you can use a guess and check strategy.

Start with 5 minutes using it (25% lost) and 10 minutes charging (20% gained).

Try 7 minutes using it (35% lost) and 14 minutes charging (28%).

Next, 9 minutes (45%) and 18 minutes(36%).

10 minutes (50%) and 20 minutes (40%). This is the difference.

She used it for 10 minutes and charged it for 20 minutes.

The answer is a = \frac{4}{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction</em>

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2\frac{2}{3} will be \frac{8}{3}

<em>2. Now the equation is,</em>

\frac{3}{2} a - \frac{4}{3} a = \frac{10}{3} + \frac{8}{3} a

<em>3. Take LCM on both sides. </em>

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by \frac{3}{3} and multiply the second fraction by \frac{2}{2}

\frac{3*3}{2*3} a - \frac{4*3}{3*3} a = \frac{10+8a}{3}

<em>4. Solve by making a the subject</em>

\frac{9a-8a}{6} = \frac{10+8a}{3}

\frac{a}{6} = \frac{10+8a}{3}

\frac{3a}{6} =10+8a

\frac{a}{2} = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = \frac{20}{-15}

a = \frac{4}{-3}

Therefore, the answer is a = \frac{4}{-3}

If you were to roll the dice one time what is the probability it will NOT land on a 2? Put your answer in fraction form.
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

On a standard 6-sided die, there is only one 2. That means that there are 5 other numbers that it could land on (1, 3, 4, 5, 6).

Using that information, the probability of it not landing on a 2 is 5 out of 6 or 5/6. This is because you must do part over whole. The "part" in this situation is the 5 "wanted" numbers, and the "whole" is 6 because there are six potential numbers that it could land on.

I hope this helps.
