Find the sum of 3+9+27...+6561

1 answer:

7 0

The sum of the first n terms of a geometric series with first term a₁ and common ratio r is given by the formula
$S_{n}=a_{1}\cdot\dfrac{r^{n}-1}{r-1}$

Then your sum is
$\sum\limits_{n=1}^{8}3^{n}=3\cdot\dfrac{3^{8}-1}{3-1}=9840$

The sum of this geometric series with first term 3 and common ratio 3 is ...
J 9840

3rd pic:

a, for blue prism: V = Area of base x Height = 48 x a =720

=> a = 720/48 = 15

b, for orange prism: V = Area of base x Height = (12xb)/2 x 15 =720

=> b =(720x2)/(15x12)= 8

X:y=5:3 and x+y=56<br> what is the value off x-y

Rudiy27

$x:y=5:3\to\dfrac{x}{y}=\dfrac{5}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3x=5y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x=\dfrac{5}{3}y\\\\\text{substitute to the equation} \ x+y=56\\\\\dfrac{5}{3}y+y=56\\\\\dfrac{5}{3}y+\dfrac{3}{3}y=56\\\\\dfrac{5+3}{3}y=56\\\\\dfrac{8}{3}y=56\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}\\\\8y=3\cdot56\qquad\text{divide both sides by 8}\\\\y=3\cdot7\\\\y=21\\\\\text{substitute the value of y to the equation}\ x=\dfrac{5}{3}y\\\\x=\dfrac{5}{3}\cdot21=5\cdot7=35$

$Answer:\ \boxed{x-y=35-21=14}$
