S1 = 1

S2 = 0.5

S3 = 0.6667

S4 = 0.625

S5 = 0.6333

=========================================================

Explanation:

Let f(n) = \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n!}

The summation given to us represents the following

\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n!}=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} f(n)\\\\\\\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n!}=f(1) + f(2)+f(3)+\ldots\\\\

There are infinitely many terms to be added.

-------------------

The partial sums only care about adding a finite amount of terms.

The partial sum S_1 is the sum of the first term and nothing else. Technically it's not really a sum because it doesn't have any other thing to add to. So we simply say S_1 = f(1) = 1

I'm skipping the steps to compute f(1) since you already have done so.

-------------------

The second partial sum is when things get a bit more interesting.

We add the first two terms.

S_2 = f(1)+f(2)\\\\S_2 = 1+(-\frac{1}{2})\\\\S_2 = \frac{1}{2}\\\\S_2 = 0.5\\\\\\

The scratch work for computing f(2) is shown in the diagram below.

-------------------

We do the same type of steps for the third partial sum.

S_3 = f(1)+f(2)+f(3)\\\\S_3 = 1+(-\frac{1}{2})+\frac{1}{6}\\\\S_3 = \frac{2}{3}\\\\S_3 \approx 0.6667\\\\\\

The scratch work for computing f(3) is shown in the diagram below.

-------------------

Now add the first four terms to get the fourth partial sum.

S_4 = f(1)+f(2)+f(3)+f(4)\\\\S_4 = 1+(-\frac{1}{2})+\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{24}\\\\S_4 = \frac{5}{8}\\\\S_4 \approx 0.625\\\\\\

As before, the scratch work for f(4) is shown below.

I'm sure you can notice by now, but the partial sums are recursive. Each new partial sum builds upon what is already added up so far.

This means something like S_3 = S_2 + f(3) and S_4 = S_3 + f(4)

In general, S_{n+1} = S_{n} + f(n+1) so you don't have to add up all the first n terms. Simply add the last term to the previous partial sum.

-------------------

Let's use that recursive trick to find S_5

S_5 = [f(1)+f(2)+f(3)+f(4)]+f(5)\\\\S_5 = S_4 + f(5)\\\\S_5 = \frac{5}{8} + \frac{1}{120}\\\\S_5 = \frac{19}{30}\\\\S_5 \approx 0.6333

The scratch work for f(5) is shown below.

Lamar is solving the equation x2−12x=−6 by completing the square. Which shows Lamar's next step and the solution to the equation
Levart [38]
Completing the square is a process to find the solutions, or the x-values, to a quadratic equation. This method can only work if it is in the format: x^2 + bx = c
In this equation, the b value is -12 and the c value is -6. The process for completing the square goes like this:

x^2 + bx + (b/2)^2 = c + (b/2)^2

Now let’s solve the equation above using this method.

Step 1: x^2 - 12x + (-12/2)^2 = -6 + (-12/2)^2

Step 2: x^2 - 12x + (-6)^2 = -6 + (-6)^2

Step 3: x^2 - 12x + 36 = -6 + 36

Step 4: x^2 - 12x + 36 = 30

Now, to factor it. After doing the process until now, the left side of the equation can ALWAYS be in the format: (x + a)^2

Step 5: x^2 - 12x + 36 can be factored in this format as (x - 6)^2

Step 6: (x - 6)^2 = 30

Step 7: x - 6 = √30

Step 8: x = 6 ±√30

Will mark brainliest
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know she gets 4 more quarters so: q+4

She gives away 3 dime so: d-3

And the nickels stay the same: n

In total the expression would be:  <u>q+4+d-3+n</u>
