What is the sum of series is numbers 64&66 ?<br> Using the summation notation

iragen [17]

Answer:

64. 6138

66. 8.078125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take it one number at a time.

For number 64:

$6(2)^{1-1}=6$

$6(2)^{2-1}=12$

$6(2)^{3-1}=24$

$6(2)^{4-1}=48$

$6(2)^{5-1}=96$

$6(2)^{6-1}=192$

$6(2)^{7-1}=384$

$6(2)^{8-1}=768$

$6(2)^{9-1}=1536$

$6(2)^{10-1}=3072$

Sum = 6 + 12 + 24 + 48 + 96 + 192 + 384 + 768 + 1536 + 3072

Sum = 6138

For number 66:

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{0}=12$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{1}=-6$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{2}=3$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{3}=-1.5$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{4}=0.75$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{5}=-0.375$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{6}=0.1875$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{7}=-0.0078125$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{8}=0.046875$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{9}=-0.0234375$

Sum = 12 + -6 + 3 + -1.5 + 0.75 + -0.375 + 0.1875 + -0.0078125 + 0.046875 + -0.0234375

or to make things simpler:

Sum = 12 - 6 + 3 - 1.5 + 0.75 - 0.375 + 0.1875 - 0.0078125 + 0.046875 - 0.0234375

Sum = 8.078125

lozanna [386]

Answer:

ghs 20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

If Boadu and ansah formed a company and agreed that their annual profit will be shared in the ratio of 4:5 respectively, the total ratio will be 4 + 5 = 9

Let Boadu share be x

Let ansah share be y

If at the end of the year ansah received ghs5,000 more than Boadu, then;

y = 5000 + x

Boadu share = 4/9 * (x+y)

x+y is the total amount shared

x = 4/9 * (x+y)

Substitute y = 5000 + x

9x = 4(x+y)

9x = 4x + 4y

9x - 4x = 4y

5x = 4y

5x = 4(5000+x)

5x = 20,000 + 4x

5x-4x = 20,000

x = 20,000

Hence Boadu share is ghs 20,000

Find the greatest four digit square number by division method

Agata [3.3K]

9999 is largest 4 digit number, and 100^2 is 10000, or 1 greater than the largest 4 digit number. This means that the closest square root of the largest perfect square is most likely 99. So 99^2 (9801)is the largest perfect square of four digits.
