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.

Explain how proving to triangles congruent can help prove parts of the triangle congruent.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

CPCTC - Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

When two triangles are congruent, this means they have the same shape and the same size. To have the same shape, each angle must be congruent. To have the same size, each side length must be congruent. When you know two triangles are congruent you can say each corresponding part of congruent triangles is congruent. This is known as CPCTC.

Factor completely 50a2b5 − 35a4b3 + 5a3b4
Andreyy89

The complete factorisation of 50a²b⁵ − 35a⁴b³ + 5a³b⁴ is 5a²b³(10b² - 7a² + ab)

<h3>How to factorise?</h3>

Factorisation is the process of writing an expression as a product of two or more common factors.

The expression is written as a product of several factor.

Therefore,

50a²b⁵ − 35a⁴b³ + 5a³b⁴

Hence, the complete factorisation is as follows;

5a²b³(10b² - 7a² + ab)
