Answer:
First blank: 869x
Second blank: 17,575
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Men (f): 389x + 7500
Women (g): 480x + 10075
Equation: (f + g)
Equation: 389x + 7500 + 480x + 10075
Combine like terms
869x + 17575
Equation: 869x + 17,575
Answer:
C. An Exponent
Step-by-step explanation:
It is C because the number being squared is called the base number. In this case the base number is x.
The exponent, the amount of times that the base number will be multiplying itself by is 2.
Therefore, in x^2, the 2 is the exponent.
Answer:
The total cost of 4 burgers and 6 hot dog would be $25.00
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify what you know:
1) One burger costs $3.25
2) One hot dog costs $2.00
3) We are given the formula 3.25b + 2h
Thus, all we need to do is plug in our values!
3.25(4) + 2(6) = x
13 + 12 = x
x = $25
Hope this helps! :)

for

, but

is only decreasing for

, as you mentioned. This will not affect the behavior of the series. The sum starting from

converges, so its value must be finite. Including the term generated by

(which is finite, and zero besides, in this case) is the same as adding two finite numbers, which is yet another finite number. So the fact that the alternating series test only applies for a subset of the terms in the series doesn't matter.
For the second problem, the ratio test is an excellent choice. You have

which means the series converges.
