What is the sum of the infinite geometric series?

1 answer:

An infinite geometric series is the sum of an infinite geometric sequence . This series would have no last term. The general form of the infinite geometric series is a1+a1r+a1r2+a1r3+... , where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. We can find the sum of all finite geometric series.

Peter is buying office supplies he is able to buy three packages of paper in for staplers for $40 or he is able to buy five pack

Damm [24]

Answer:

Cost of package of paper = 4$

Cost of stapler = 7$

Explanation:

Consider the cost of package of paper = x and that of stapler = y.

Now, we are given that cost of 3 paper packages and 4 staplers = 40$

Hence we get, 3x + 4y = 40 as 1st equation.

we are also given, cost of 5 paper packages and 6 staplers = 62$

Hence, the second equation is 5x + 6y = 62

Now, solving the two equations by method of elimination, we first equate coefficients of any one variable say x by multiplying 1st equation by 5 and second by 3 we get ->

15x + 20y = 200

15x + 18y= 186

Subtracting the two we get y = 7 and substituting this value of y in first equation we get x = 4

which gives the required cost of one paper package = x = 4$

and one stapler = y = 7$

Use the definition of logarithm to simplify each expression.

konstantin123 [22]

$1)\ \ \ log 10 ^{10}=x\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ 10^x=10^{10}\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ \ \ \ x=10\\\\2) \ \ \ log 10 ^{100}=x\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ 10^x=10^{100}\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ x=100\\ \\ 3)\ \ \ log 10 ^ {10-4}=x\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ 10^x=10^{10-4}\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ x=6$
