You're very close. The answers you've selected are correct, but there's one third series that's also alternating. Choice C is also an answer due to the (-1)^n term.

Any alternating series is in the form \displaystyle \sum (-1)^n*a_n or \displaystyle \sum (-1)^{n+1}*a_n where a_n is any sequence.

Choice E comes close, but the 2n being the exponent means that we don't have alternating signs (positive, negative, positive negative, etc). Why is this? Well notice how 2n is even regardless of what integer n we pick. Raising any negative number to an even power results in a positive value.

Eg: (-7)^2 = 49 and (-3)^4 = 81

This means that all of the terms of sequence E are going to be positive. The terms do not bounce back and forth between positive and negative.

Put another way, (-1)^{2n} = \left((-1)^2\right)^n = 1^n = 1

So \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (-1)^{2n}\frac{1}{n+3} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n+3}

And it's why choice E is not one of the answers.

The length of the triangle for the pool table is the twice the sum of 5 and a number. If the rack is
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

30 + 6x inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be x

If the length of the triangle for the pool table is the twice the sum of 5 and a number

L = 2(5+x)

L = 10+2x

Since the triangle is quadilateral, this means that all sides are equal

Perimeter = 3L

Perimeter = 3(10+2x)

Perimeter = 30+6x

Hence the perimeter, in inches, of the triangle is 30 + 6x inches

Which of the following is true regarding the sequence graphed below (1,1)(2,4)(3,9)(4,16)(5,25)
Daniel [21]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Use the geometric sequence of numbers 1, 3, 9, 27, � to find the following:

a) What is r, the ratio between 2 consecutive terms?

Answer: r=3

Show work in this space.

r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3 they all have the same ratio.

r=3/1=9/3=27/3=3

:



b) Using the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence, what is the 10th term?

Answer: a10=19683

Show work in this space.

an=a1*r^(n-1)

a10=1(3)^(10-1)
