Hello there! And welcome to brainly . com! Your number one asking and answering site.

Answer: No.

Why?

The said decimal is a string of numbers, but does not have the same number repeated over and over again, nor does it have a triple dot after it. Thus, it is not repeating.

Hope this helped you, and have a great day! ♥

Answer:

No, Marco is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number does not actually repeat because after each 9 there is an additional 6 before the next 9. The number is not a rational number.

What is the sum of the n terms of the series 4 + 12 + 36 + 108 + . . . ?

arlik [135]

Sum of n terms of a geometric series is
Sn = a1 (r^n-1)/(r-1)
a1 = 1st term = 4
r = common ratio = 12/4 = 3
so, the sum is
Sn = 4 (3^n-1)/(3-1) = 2(3^n-1)

Simplify: (-3x^3+2x^2+4x)-(8x^4-5x^3+6x^2-2x

sergejj [24]

Answer:

−8^4+2^3−4^2+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the - to 8x^4-5x^3+6x^2-2x:

-8x^4+5x^3-6x^2+2x

Now simplify:

-3x^3+2x^2+4x-8x^4+5x^3-6x^2+2x= −8^4+2^3−4^2+6

Hope this helps!
