Step-by-step explanation:
30 cookies = 2 cups
1 cookie = 2/30 cups = 1/15 cups
40 cookies = 1/15 × 40 = 8/3 cups
126/7=18 (so that's 18 ounces per bag)
now subtract the 3 ounces that were added to each bag:
18-3=15
so the old almond bag weighed 15 ounces
Answer:
All of them
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the ratio test, for a series ∑aₙ:
If lim(n→∞) |aₙ₊₁ / aₙ| < 1, then ∑aₙ converges.
If lim(n→∞) |aₙ₊₁ / aₙ| > 1, then ∑aₙ diverges.
(I) aₙ = 10 / n!
lim(n→∞) |(10 / (n+1)!) / (10 / n!)|
lim(n→∞) |(10 / (n+1)!) × (n! / 10)|
lim(n→∞) |n! / (n+1)!|
lim(n→∞) |1 / (n+1)|
0 < 1
This series converges.
(II) aₙ = n / 2ⁿ
lim(n→∞) |((n+1) / 2ⁿ⁺¹) / (n / 2ⁿ)|
lim(n→∞) |((n+1) / 2ⁿ⁺¹) × (2ⁿ / n)|
lim(n→∞) |(n+1) / (2n)|
1/2 < 1
This series converges.
(III) aₙ = 1 / (2n)!
lim(n→∞) |(1 / (2(n+1))!) / (1 / (2n)!)|
lim(n→∞) |(1 / (2n+2)!) × (2n)! / 1|
lim(n→∞) |(2n)! / (2n+2)!|
lim(n→∞) |1 / ((2n+2)(2n+1))|
0 < 1
This series converges.
