Justin's statement would be the best. In order to change 3/5 into 6/10, both sides would need to be multiplied by 2.

Find the sum of the first 25 terms in this geometric series:<br> 8 + 6 + 4.5...
Ksivusya [100]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the geometric sequence

8 + 6 + 4.5...

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio and is defined by

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

\mathrm{Compute\:the\:ratios\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms}:\quad \:r=\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}

\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4},\:\quad \frac{4.5}{6}=\frac{3}{4}

\mathrm{The\:ratio\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms\:is\:the\:same\:and\:equal\:to}

r=\frac{3}{4}

\mathrm{The\:first\:element\:of\:the\:sequence\:is}

a_1=8

\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:}n\mathrm{th\:term\:is\:computed\:by}\:

a_n=8\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{n-1}

\mathrm{Geometric\:sequence\:sum\:formula:}

a_1\frac{1-r^n}{1-r}

\mathrm{Plug\:in\:the\:values:}

n=25,\:\spacea_1=8,\:\spacer=\frac{3}{4}

=8\cdot \frac{1-\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{25}}{1-\frac{3}{4}}

\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c}

=\frac{\left(1-\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{25}\right)\cdot \:8}{1-\frac{3}{4}}

=\frac{8\left(-\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{25}+1\right)}{\frac{1}{4}}

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^c=\frac{a^c}{b^c}

=\frac{8\left(-\frac{3^{25}}{4^{25}}+1\right)}{\frac{1}{4}}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{\frac{b}{c}}=\frac{a\cdot \:c}{b}

=\frac{\left(1-\frac{3^{25}}{4^{25}}\right)\cdot \:8\cdot \:4}{1}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:8\cdot \:4=32

=\frac{32\left(-\frac{3^{25}}{4^{25}}+1\right)}{1}

=\frac{32\cdot \frac{4^{25}-3^{25}}{4^{25}}}{1}               ∵ \mathrm{Join}\:1-\frac{3^{25}}{4^{25}}:\quad \frac{4^{25}-3^{25}}{4^{25}}

=32\cdot \frac{4^{25}-3^{25}}{4^{25}}

=\frac{\left(4^{25}-3^{25}\right)\cdot \:32}{4^{25}}

=\frac{2^5\left(4^{25}-3^{25}\right)}{2^{50}}        ∵ \mathrm{Factor}\:32:\ 2^5,  \mathrm{Factor}\:4^{25}:\ 2^{50}

so

=\frac{4^{25}-3^{25}}{2^{45}}        ∵ \mathrm{Cancel\:}\frac{\left(4^{25}-3^{25}\right)\cdot \:2^5}{2^{50}}:\quad \frac{4^{25}-3^{25}}{2^{45}}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a\pm \:b}{c}=\frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}

=\frac{4^{25}}{2^{45}}-\frac{3^{25}}{2^{45}}      

=32-\frac{3^{25}}{2^{45}}            ∵  \frac{4^{25}}{2^{45}}=32

=32-0.024        ∵  \frac{3^{25}}{2^{45}}=0.024

=31.98            

Therefore, the sum of the first 25 terms in this geometric series: 31.98

kaheart [24]
To solve this problem we can make a proportion.
6      5
-- = ---
10    x

to solve this proportion we can cross multiply and divide.
5 times 10 is 50.  divided by 6 is 8.3
it will take her 8.3 minutes to run 5 laps
