Yes, Harrison's way doesn't work because 5/5 = 1 and 4 1's don't make 22/5

a mountaineer climbed 1,000 feet at a rate of x feet per hour, he climbed and additional 5,000 feet at a different rate. this ra
marshall27 [118]

A mountaineer climbed 1000 feet at a rate of x feet/hour

 1000 = x ( t 1 )         eq1

  5000 = X ( t 2)        eq2     ( he climbed additional at different rate )

the rate was 10 feet / hour less than twice the first rate

 X   = 2x - 10             eq3

take eq1 and eq 2

( total time = t 1 +  t 2 =   T)

T = 1000/x  + 5000/X

but X = 2x-10

T = 1000/x   +  5000/( 2x -10)

T = 1000/x   +  5000/( 2(x-5))

T  = 1000/x   +    2500 /  (x-5)

Find the sum of the geometric sequence –3, 15, –75, 375, … when there are 9 terms and select the correct answer below.
zavuch27 [327]
Sn=sum of the n terms of the geometric sequence.
a= the first term
r=the common ratio
n=numbers of terms.

Sn=a[(1-r^n)/(1-r)]

In this case:
a=-3
r=a₂/a₁=15/-3=-5
n=9

S₉=-3[(1-(-5)⁹) / (1-(-5))=
S₉=-3(1+1953125)/6)=
S₉=-3(1953126/6)=
S₉=-3(325521)
S₉=-976563

Answer: A. -976563
